Recent results of Alfvén wave heating experiments and the characteristics of a new regime of runaway discharges found in Tokamak Chauffage Alfvén Brésilien (TCABR) are discussed. (1) Wave excitation was carried out with one module of the antenna system, with and without a Faraday screen. Evidence of plasma heating was obtained in both cases, for coupled wave powers up to half of the Ohmic power, approximately, without uncontrollable density rise during the RF pulse. The antenna coupling with the plasma seems to have increased when the Faraday screen was removed. (2) The new regime of runaway discharges is produced by initiating the main plasma breakdown without pre-ionization and strongly increasing the neutral gas fuelling at the end of the current ramp-up phase. Consequently, the plasma cools down substantially and switches to a runaway mode in conditions under which the primary (Dreicer) mechanism is strongly suppressed. This new regime of runaway discharges is characterized by strong enhancement of the relaxation oscillations, which are seen in the Hα and ECE emissions, coupled with large spikes in the line density, loop voltage, bolometer, and other diagnostic signals.

Alfvén波加熱実験の最近の結果と、Tokamak Chauffage Brésilien(TCABR)において見出された新たなランナウェイ放電領域の特性について論じる。(1)波動励起は、ファラデーシールドの有無にかかわらず、アンテナシステムの1モジュールを用いて実施された。両方のケースにおいて、RFパルス中の密度の制御不能な上昇を伴うことなく、オーミック電力の約半分までの結合波パワーに対して、プラズマ加熱の証拠が得られた。ファラデーシールドが取り外された場合、プラズマとのアンテナ結合は増加したと思われる。(2)新たなランナウェイ放電領域は、予備電離なしで主プラズマの立ち上げを開始し、電流ランプアップ段階の終わりに中性ガス供給を強く増加させることによって生成される。その結果、プラズマは大幅に冷却され、一次(Dreicer)機構が強く抑制される条件下でランナウェイモードに遷移する。この新たなランナウェイ放電領域は、HαおよびECE放射に見られる緩和振動の強い増強と、線平均密度、ループ電圧、ボロメータ、その他の診断信号における大きなスパイクが結合したことを特徴とする。
