Estimation of Charge Exchange Recombination Emission Based on Diagnostic Neutral Beam on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak

Diagnostic neutral beam （DNB） attenuation and charge exchange recombination emission are estimated on EAST tokamak. Approximately 40% of the beam with the energy of 50 keV can reach the plasma centre （r = 0） for the typical parameters of the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak （EAST） plasma. Emissivities of CVI （n = 8 → 7, 529.0nm） and OVⅢ （n = 10 →9, 607.Ohm） visible charge exchange recombination emissions based on the DNB are estimated. The emissivities of the visible bremsstrahlung emission near this wavelength are also calculated for comparison. The results show that the charge exchange recombination emission is about two orders of magnitude greater than the bremsstrahlung emission. It is theoretically indicated that the ratio of signal of charge exchange recombination spectroscopy to the noise from background bremsstrahlung emission, S/N, is large enough in the EAST tokamak with the typical designed parameters. The present results are helpful for experiment design of charge-exchange recombination spectroscopy based on the DNB in the EAST tokamak.     

Analysis of Dα（Hα） spectrum emitted in front of the limiter in HT-7^＊

In order to understand the recycling and emission processes of hydrogen atoms in HT 7, spectral profiles of the Dα（Hα） line emitted in front of the limiter have been observed with a high-resolution spectrometer and simulated by using the neutral particle transport code DEGAS 2. The results show that four processes are necessary to interpret the Dα（Hα） line shape： 1） atom desorption, 2） molecular dissociation, 3） particle reflection, and 4） charge-exchange. The products of the first two processes are cold atoms which emit photons near the peak of Dα（Hα） line shape, and those from the last two are warm atoms contributing to the blue side of the spectrum. For a typical ohmic discharge （shot 68520 ne（0） ≈ 3× 10^19 m^-3. these components contribute 32%, 15%, 32% and 21%, respectively. Dα（Hα） line shapes under different plasma parameters are also discussed in this paper.     

Runaway Electron Beam Instability in Slide-Away Discharges in the HT-7 Tokamak

Slide-away discharges are achieved by decreasing the plasma density or ramping down the plasma current in runaway discharges in the HT-7 tokamak. In the case of plasma current ramp down, the ratio of the electron plasma frequency to the electron cyclotron frequency is higher than in the stationary pulses when the discharge goes into a slide-away regime. The instability regime is characterized by relaxations in the electron cyclotron emission due to relativistic anomalous Doppler effect which transfers energy from parallel to perpendicular motion. The triggering of relativistic anomalous Doppler effect at higher density by ramping down of plasma current may provide a alternative runaway energy control scenario.     

Investigation of lower hybrid current drive during H-mode in EAST tokamak

H-mode discharges with lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) alone are achieved in EAST divertor plasma over a wide parameter range. These H-mode discharges are characterized by a sudden drop in D_α emission and a spontaneous rise in main plasma density. Good lower hybrid (LH) coupling during H-mode is obtained by putting the plasma close to the antenna and by injecting D₂ gas from a pipe near the grill mouse. The analysis of lower hybrid current drive properties shows that the LH deposition profile shifts off axis during H-mode, and current drive (CD) efficiency decreases due to the increase in density. Modeling results of H-mode discharges with a general ray tracing code GENRAY are reported.

Study of particle behaviour at the edge in HT-7 tokamak

The cross-field diffusion coefficient (D_⊥) at the edge in the HT-7 tokamak is close to the Bohm value when the line average electron density ranges from 1.5×10^{19} to 3.0×10^{19}m^{-3}. The energy profile of the particles is derived directly from the H_α(D_α) line shape; the dissociative excitation of molecules is dominating when the local electron temperature is above 10eV. By means of the Monte Carlo method the D_α line shape is also simulated. We find that the molecular dissociation contributes to 57% of neutral atoms and 53% of emission intensity in front of the limiter, and 85% of neutral atoms and 82% of emission intensity in front of the wall. The influence of atomic and molecular processes on the energy balance is discussed for the scrape-off layer (SOL), and the power loss from molecular dissociation is found to be 6×10^4kW at the SOL. The ion Bernstein wave (IBW) can effectively suppress the magnetohydrodynamic behaviour, the fluctuation levels and the turbulence; the D_⊥ in front of the limiter declines from 0.84 to 0.2m^2·s^{-1} and the particle confinement time rises from 9 to 12ms.     

Bursty events and incremental diffusion in a local diffusion and multi—scale convection system

A one-dimensional cellular automaton is defined without the critical gradient rule (Δh>Δh_c) which is essential to the existence of avalanches in self-organized criticality (SOC) models. Instead, only the local diffusion rule is used, however, the characteristics of SOC, such as the bursty behaviour, power-law decay in fluctuation spectra, self-similarity over a broad range of scales and long-time correlations, are still observed in these numerical experiments. This numerical model is established to suggest that the bursty events and the incremental diffusion observed universally in fusion experiments do not necessarily imply the submarginal dynamics.
