Toroidal Alfven Eigenmode induced ripple trapping

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/31458· OSTI ID:31458
Toroidal Alfven Eigenmodes are shown to be capable of inducing ripple trapping of high energy particles in tokamaks, causing intense localized particle loss. The effect has been observed in TFTR.
