To guide the experimental design of a linear plasma device for studying the interaction between energetic ions and Alfv\'{e}nic gap eigenmode (AGE), this work computes AGE referring to fusion conditions in a ultra-long large plasma cylinder…
The radial structure of the continuous spectrum of shear Alfven waves is calculated in this paper within the separatrix of a magnetic island. Geometrical effects due to the noncircularity of the flux surface's cross section are retained to…
High-order plasma shaping (mainly elongation and shift, as opposed to low-order toroidicity) is shown, under certain conditions, to open gaps in the coupled shear-Alfv\'{e}n and acoustic continua at frequencies significantly above the…
The shear Alfv\'en wave (SAW) continuum plays a critical role in the stability of energetic particle-driven Alfv\'{e}n eigenmodes. We develop a theoretical framework to analyze the SAW continuum in three-dimensional quasisymmetric magnetic…
Established techniques for characterizing a layer on a substrate system via surface acoustic wave (SAW) dispersion measurement are often slow due to the need for scanning excitation or detection positions. We present a method for…
Although it is well recognized that waves propagating in periodic media have forbidden gaps in the continuous spectrum, it is still yet unknown about the minimum number and depth of periodic modulations for clear spectral formation. This…
Nonlinear set of equations for inertial or slow shear Alfven wave (SSAW) in ideal electron-positron-ion (e-p-i) plasmas are presented. The analytical solution for arbitrary amplitude SSAW in such multi-component plasmas is obtained using…
Kinetic Alfv\'en Waves (KAWs) are generated in magnetized space and laboratory plasmas due to a continuous shear Alfv\'en wave (SAW) spectrum and, unlike SAWs, are characterized by microscale perpendicular structures of the order of the…
The shear Alfv\'en continuum spectrum is studied for a tokamak with a single island chain using the ideal Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) theory. We have taken into account the toroidal geometry and toroidal mode coupling with the island…
An ElectroMagnetic Solver (EMS) [Chen et al., Phys. Plasmas, 13, 123507 (2006)] is employed to model a spectral gap and a gap eigenmode in a periodic structure in the whistler frequency range. A Radially Localised Helicon (RLH) mode…
A workflow is developed based on the ideal MHD model to investigate the linear physics of various Alfv\'en eigenmodes in general axisymmetric toroidal geometry, by solving the coupled shear Alfv\'en wave (SAW) and ion sound wave (ISW)…
Using two-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations, we explore the nonlinear "interruption" of standing and traveling shear-Alfv\'en waves in collisionless plasmas. Interruption involves a self-generated pressure anisotropy removing the…
The radial structure of the continuous spectrum of shear Alfven modes is calculated in the presence of a magnetic island in tokamak plasmas. Modes with the same helicity of the magnetic island are considered in a slab model approximation.…
Large-amplitude Alfv\'en waves are subject to parametric decays which can have important consequences in space, astrophysical, and fusion plasmas. Though the Alfv\'en wave parametric decay instability was predicted decades ago,…
Energy dissipation and particle acceleration in the collisionless magnetotail plasma remain incompletely understood. While Kinetic Alfv\'en Waves (KAWs) are widely hypothesized to mediate these processes, observational characterization of…
An experimental investigation of nonlinear interactions between shear Alfv\'{e}n waves in a laboratory plasma is presented. Two Alfv\'{e}n waves, generated by a resonant cavity, are observed to beat together, driving a low frequency…
Hybrid MHD-gyrokinetic code simulations are used to investigate the dynamics of frequency sweeping reversed shear Alfv\'en eigenmode (RSAE) strongly driven by energetic particles (EPs) during plasma current ramp-up in a conventional tokamak…
The linear properties of the low-frequency shear Alfv\'en waves such as those associated with the beta-induced Alfv\'en eigenmodes (BAEs) and the low-frequency modes observed in reversed-magnetic-shear DIII-D discharges (W. Heidbrink, et al…
We study the non-linear interaction of three parallel Alfv\'en wave packets (AWP) in an initially uniform plasma using 2.5D particle-in-a-cell (PIC) numerical simulations. We aim to help to explain the observation of suprathermal electrons…
In this work, we investigate prompt ion drift orbit losses caused by shear Alfv\'en waves (SAW) in quasi-symmetric (QS) and quasi-isodynamic (QI) stellarators optimized for equilibrium confinement of energetic particles (EPs). We use the…
