متن کاملIon Cyclotron Range of Frequencies Mode Conversion Electron Heating in Deuterium-Hydrogen Plasmas in the Alcator C-Mod Tokamak
Localized direct electron heating by mode-converted ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) waves in D(H) tokamak plasmas has been clearly observed for the first time in Alcator C-Mod. Both onand off-axis (high field side) mode conversion electron heating (MCEH) have been observed. The MCEH profile was obtained from a break in slope analysis of electron temperature signals in the presence of ...
متن کاملFast Compressional Alfven Waves in a Tokamak
Enhancement of cyclotron damping is theoretically evaluated based upon the wave E-field polarization which is modified by the two-ion hybrid resonance. The degree of enhancement and its asymmetry about the plasma center is consistent with experimental observations. The enhancement factor is very large at low plasma densities at which most of the past damping strength measurements have been repo...
متن کاملAlfven Cyclotron Instability and Ion Cyclotron Emission
Two-dimensional solutions of compressional Alfven eigenmodes (CAE) are studied in the cold plasma approximation. For finite inverse aspect ratio tokamak plasmas the two-dimensional eigenmode envelope is localized at the low magnetic field side with the radial and poloidal localization on the order of u / f i and u/*, respectively, where rn is the dominant poloidal mode number. Charged fusion pr...
متن کاملMeasurements of low-energy neutral hydrogen efflux during ICRF heating
Using the Low Energy Neutral Atom Spectrometer, measurements were made of the H° and D° efflux from PLT during ion cyclotron heating experiments. The application of RF power at frequencies appropriate to fundamental and second-harmonic heating results in a rapid, toroidally uniform rise in the charge-exchange efflux at a rate of about 10 cm'^s" -MW". This flux increase is larger at lower plasma...
