High-order coupling of shear and sonic continua in JET plasmas
Paulo Rodrigues, Duarte Borba, Francesca Cella +8
A recent model coupling the shear-Alfvén and acoustic continua, which depends strongly on the equilibrium shaping and on elongation in particular, is employed to explain the proper…

Comprehensive evaluation of the linear stability of Alfvén eigenmodes driven by alpha particles in an ITER baseline scenario
A. C. A. Figueiredo, P. Rodrigues, D. Borba +8
The linear stability of Alfvén eigenmodes in the presence of fusion-born alpha particles is thoroughly assessed for two variants of an ITER baseline scenario, which differ signific…

Sensitivity of alpha-particle-driven Alfven eigenmodes to q-profile variation in ITER scenarios
P. Rodrigues, A. C. A. Figueiredo, D. Borba +8
A perturbative hybrid ideal-MHD/drift-kinetic approach to assess the stability of alpha-particle-driven Alfven eigenmodes in burning plasmas is used to show that certain foreseen I…
