Influence of plasma shaping on the parity of core-localized toroidal Alfvén eigenmode in an advanced tokamak configuration
Shiwei Xue, Ping Zhu, Haolong Li
Toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) and energetic particle modes (EPMs) can both be excited by energetic particles from auxiliary heating and fusion-born alpha particles in a tokama…

Enhanced dynamo drive for the sawtooth relaxation process due to non-uniform resistivity distribution in a reversed field pinch
Wentan Yan, Ping Zhu, Hong Li +3
In this work, we use the three-dimensional resistive MHD code NIMROD to investigate the impact of resistivity inhomogeneity on the sawtooth process of an reversed field pinch (RFP)…
