Title: Alfven Eigenmode Stability with Beams in ITER-like Plasma

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/828580· OSTI ID:828580

Toroidicity Alfven Eigenmodes (TAE) in ITER can be driven unstable by two groups of energetic particles, the 3.5 MeV {alpha}-particle fusion products and the tangentially injected 1MeV beam ions. Stability conditions are established using the perturbative NOVA/NOVA-K codes. A quasi-linear diffusion model is then used to assess the induced redistribution of energetic particles.
