High-order geodesic coupling of shear-Alfvén and acoustic continua in tokamaks

Paulo Rodrigues, Francesca Cella2021年被引用 3Nuclear FusionIF 3出版社

High-order plasma shaping (mainly elongation and shift, as opposed to low-order toroidicity) is shown, under certain conditions, to open gaps in the coupled shear-Alfvén and acoustic continua at frequencies significantly above the values predicted by previous theories. Global eigenmodes in these gaps, which lie between the frequencies of geodesic acoustic modes and toroidicity-induced Alfvén eigenmodes, are found unstable to hot-ion populations typical of tokamak operation, whilst their fundamental resonances with circulating particles are shown to take place at velocities near the geometric mean of the Alfvén and sound speeds. Therefore, such eigenmodes are expected to be observed near the predicted frequencies at operating tokamaks, playing a still unexplored role in magnetohydrodynamic spectroscopy as well as in the stability of next-step fusion experiments.

高次プラズマ形状(主に伸長とシフトであり、低次のトロイダル性とは対照的)は、特定の条件下で、結合したせん断アルフヴェン連続体と音響連続体に、従来の理論で予測された値よりも有意に高い周波数でギャップを開くことが示される。これらのギャップ内の大域的固有モードは、測地線音響モードとトロイダル性誘起アルフヴェン固有モードの周波数の間に位置し、トカマク運転に典型的な高温イオン集団に対して不安定であることが見出される。一方、それらの循環粒子との基本共鳴は、アルフヴェン速度と音速の幾何平均に近い速度で生じることが示される。したがって、そのような固有モードは、運転中のトカマクにおいて予測された周波数付近で観測されることが期待され、磁気流体力学分光法および次段階の核融合実験の安定性において、まだ未開拓の役割を果たす。
