Ions lost on their first orbit can impact Alfvén eigenmode stability
Abstract
Some neutral-beam ions are deflected onto loss orbits by Alfvén eigenmodes on their first bounce orbit. Here, the resonance condition for these ions differs from the usual resonance condition for a confined fast ion. Estimates indicate that particles on single-pass loss orbits transfer enough energy to the wave to alter mode stability.
