Magnetohydrodynamic normal mode analysis of plasma with equilibrium pressure anisotropy
M. Fitzgerald, M. J. Hole, Z. S. Qu
In this work, we generalise linear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stability theory to include equilibrium pressure anisotropy in the fluid part of the analysis. A novel 'single-adiabati…
Analysing the impact of anisotropy pressure on tokamak equilibria
Zhisong Qu, Michael Fitzgerald, Matthew John Hole
Neutral beam injection or ion cyclotron resonance heating induces pressure anisotropy. The axisymmetric plasma equilibrium code HELENA has been upgraded to include anisotropy and t…
First evidence of Alfven wave activity in KSTAR plasmas
M. J. Hole, C. M. Ryu, M. H. Woo +4
We report on first evidence of wave activity during neutral beam heating in KSTAR plasmas: 40 kHz magnetic fluctuations with a toroidal mode number of n=1. Our analysis suggests th…
EFIT tokamak equilibria with toroidal flow and anisotropic pressure using the two-temperature guiding-centre plasma
Michael Fitzgerald, Lynton C. Appel, Matthew J. Hole
A new force balance model for the EFIT magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium technique for tokamaks is presented which includes the full toroidal flow and anisotropy changes to the Grad-…
