Journal ArticleDOI
High- beta Disruption in Tokamaks.
TL;DR: Three dimensional MHD simulations of high-{beta} plasmas show that toroidally localized high-n ballooning modes can be driven unstable by the local pressure steepening which arises from the evolution of low-n modes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear hybrid simulation of the toroidicity-induced Alfvén eigenmode.
Guoyong Fu,W. Park +1 more
TL;DR: Gyrokinetic-magnetohydrodynamic hybrid simulations have been carried out to study the nonlinear saturation of the torodicity-induced Alfv\'en eigenmode driven by energetic particles in a tokamak plasma, and wave-particle trapping is shown to be excited by the energetic particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ballistic contributions to heat-pulse propagation in the TFTR tokamak.

TL;DR: It is shown that the relaxation of this {ital extended} perturbation is consistent with the power-balance estimates of the local thermal diffusivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of sawtooth oscillations using simultaneous measurement of electron cyclotron emission imaging and x-ray tomography on TFTR.
Yoshio Nagayama,K. M. McGuire,Manfred Bitter,A. Cavallo,E.D. Fredrickson,K. W. Hill,H. Hsuan,A. Janos,W. Park,G. Taylor,Masaaki Yamada +10 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the sawtooth crash is a full reconnection process for the TFTR sawteeth, and the crescent-shaped «hot spot» in the x-ray emissivity is found not to represent flux surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bursts of electron cyclotron emission during disruptions of high β discharges in TFTR
TL;DR: In this article, a unique combination of two fast grating polychromator instruments located at different toroidal positions is used to measure the emission and characterize these bursts, and an explanation of the bursting is presented which is consistent both qualitatively and quantitatively with observations, predicting for example radiation enhancement factors of about 10.
