Resonant Pitch-Angle Scattering Of Runaway-Electrons by Externally-launched Helicon Waves in the DIII-D Tokamak

Hari Choudhury, Jeffrey Lestz, Carlos Paz-Soldan +12

Resonant wave-particle interactions between externally launched helicon waves (also known as whistler waves) and runaway electrons (REs) have been demonstrated on the DIII-D tokama…

First Demonstration of Resonant Pitch-Angle Scattering of Relativistic Electrons by Externally-Launched Helicon Waves

H. Choudhury, A. Battey, C. Paz-Soldan +12

Helicon waves satisfying the normal wave-particle cyclotron resonance are observed to limit the growth and maximum energy of relativistic electrons (REs) in low-density Ohmic DIII-…

Saturation of fishbone instability through zonal flows driven by energetic particle transport in tokamak plasmas

G. Brochard, C. Liu, X. Wei +17

Gyrokinetic and kinetic-MHD simulations are performed for the fishbone instability in the DIII-D discharge #178631, chosen for validation of first-principles simulations to predict…

Verification and validation of gyrokinetic and kinetic-MHD simulations for internal kink instability in DIII-D tokamak

G. Brochard, J. Bao, C. Liu +14

Verification and validation of the internal kink instability in tokamak have been performed for both gyrokinetic (GTC) and kinetic-MHD codes (GAM-solver, M3D-C1-K, NOVA, XTOR-K). U…

Onset of nonlinear structures due to eigenmode destabilization in tokamak plasmas

Vinicius Duarte, Herbert Berk, Nikolai Gorelenkov +5

A general methodology is proposed to differentiate the likelihood of energetic-particle-driven instabilities to produce frequency chirping or fixed-frequency oscillations. The meth…

Prediction of Nonlinear Evolution Character of Energetic-Particle-Driven Instabilities

Vinicius Duarte, Herbert Berk, Nikolai Gorelenkov +7

A general criterion is proposed and found to successfully predict the emergence of chirping oscillations of unstable Alfvénic eigenmodes in tokamak plasma experiments. The model in…
