Results of active control of neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) by electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) in JT-60U are described. Growth of an NTM with poloidal mode number m = 3 and toroidal mode number n = 2 has been suppressed by ECCD inside the sawtooth inversion radius in the co-direction, showing the possibility of the coexistence of sawtooth oscillations and a small-amplitude m/n = 3/2 NTM without large confinement degradation. Stabilization of an m/n = 2/1 NTM by ECCD at the mode rational surface has been demonstrated with a small ratio of the current density driven by the electron cyclotron (EC) wave to the local bootstrap current density (∼ 0.5). In addition, dependence of the stabilization effect on ECCD location has been investigated in detail. It has been found that an m/n = 2/1 NTM can be completely stabilized with the misalignment of the ECCD location less than about half of the full island width, and that the m/n = 2/1 NTM is destabilized with the misalignment comparable to the full island width. Time-dependent, self-consistent simulation of magnetic island evolution using the TOPICS code has shown that the stabilization and destabilization of an m/n = 2/1 NTM are well reproduced with the same set of coefficients of the modified Rutherford equation. The TOPICS simulation has also clarified that EC wave power required for complete stabilization can be significantly reduced by narrowing the ECCD deposition width.

JT-60Uにおける電子サイクロトロン電流駆動(ECCD)による新古典テアリングモード(NTM)の能動制御の結果について述べる。ポロイダルモード数m = 3、トロイダルモード数n = 2のNTMの成長が、セキュリティファクター有理面の内側へのECCDにより抑制され、大規模な閉じ込め劣化を伴わない鋸歯状振動と小振幅のm/n = 3/2 NTMの共存の可能性が示された。m/n = 2/1 NTMのモード有理面へのECCDによる安定化が、電子サイクロトロン(EC)波によって駆動される電流密度と局所的自発電流密度との比が約0.5という小さい値で実証された。さらに、ECCD位置のずれに対する安定化効果の依存性が詳細に調べられた。m/n = 2/1 NTMは、ECCD位置のずれが磁気島幅の約半分未満の場合に完全に安定化できることが見出され、ずれが磁気島幅と同程度になると不安定化されることが明らかになった。TOPICSコードを用いた時間依存の自己無撞着な磁気島発展シミュレーションにより、m/n = 2/1 NTMの安定化および不安定化が、修正ラザフォード方程式の同一の係数セットを用いて良好に再現されることが示された。また、TOPICSシミュレーションにより、ECCDの堆積幅を狭くすることで、完全安定化に必要なEC波パワーを大幅に低減できることが明らかにされた。
