Analysis of the nonlinear dynamics of a chirping-frequency Alfvén mode in a Tokamak equilibrium

Xin Wang, Sergio Briguglio, Claudio Di Troia +5

Chirping Alfvén modes are considered as potentially harmful in burning Tokamak plasmas. In this paper, the nonlinear evolution of a single-toroidal-number chirping mode is analysed…
