With an increase of magnetic field up to 0.8 T and plasma current to 400 kA, fast ion losses rate in the discharges with toroidal Alfven eigenmodes decreased in tokamak Globus-M2 comparing with Globus-M tokamak discharges. Taking into account the data on the discharges with increased magnetic field and plasma current, the regression fit of neutral particle analyzer flux drop in energy channel close to neutral beam energy on relative eigenmode magnitude, the value of magnetic field and plasma current was analyzed. The power of flux drop dependence on TAE magnitude was found to be ~0.5 and inverse proportional on the value of product of magnetic field and plasma current, which is highly likely is determined only by plasma current due to weak dependence on magnetic field. The result obtained indicates that fast ion losses in Globus-M2, stimulated by toroidal Alfven eigenmodes are mostly determined by the shift of passing orbits to the plasma edge. With the increase of plasma current and magnetic field, neutron flux drops arising in the moments of toroidal mode bursts have also decreased.

The Waves

We inject a fast ion beam across a magnetic field, through a cylindrical 5 cm diameter plasma. Shear Kelvin–Helmholtz waves, already present in the plasma, are considerably amplified. The ion beam is rapidly slowed and scattered. The observed stopping power exceeds the classical power by over two orders of magnitude. A simple theoretical estimate, ascribing beam energy loss to driving of the waves, agrees qualitatively with observations.

AbstractA code that models signals produced by charge-exchange reactions between fast ions and injected neutral beams in tokamak plasmas is described. With the fast-ion distribution function as input, the code predicts the efflux to a neutral particle analyzer (NPA) diagnostic and the photon radiance of Balmer-alpha light to a fast-ion Dα (FIDA) diagnostic. Reactions with both the primary injected neutrals and with the cloud of secondary “halo” neutrals that surround the beam are treated. Accurate calculation of the fraction of neutrals that occupy excited atomic states (the collisional-radiative transition equations) is an important element of the code. Comparison with TRANSP output and other tests verify the solutions. Judicious selection of grid size and other parameters facilitate efficient solutions. The output of the code has been validated by FIDA measurements on DIII-D but further tests are warranted.
