"Excitation of Alfvén eigenmodes by fusion-born alpha-particles in D-3He plasmas on JET"

V.G.Kiptily Ye.O.Kazakov M.Nocente J.Ongena M.Dreval T.Craciunescu M.Fitzgerald L.Giacomelli V.Goloborodko D.Rigamonti A.V.Shevelev J.Garcia H.J.C.Oliver S.E.Sharapov Z.Stancar H. Weisen

Alfvén eigenmode (AE) instabilities driven by alpha-particles have been observed in D-3He fusion experiments on the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall (ILW). For the efficient generation of fusion alpha-particles from D-3He fusion reaction, the 3‑ion radio frequency (RF) scenario was used t…

"Evidence for Alfvén Eigenmodes Driven by Alpha Particles in D-3He Fusion Experiments on JET"

V.G. Kiptily M. Fitzgerald Ye.O. Kazakov M. Nocente J. Ongena S.E. Sharapov M. Dreval Ž. Štancar T. Craciunescu J. Garcia L. Giacomelli V.Goloborodko J. Oliver H. Weisen

Dedicated experiments to generate high-energy D ions and D-3He fusion-born alpha particles have been performed at the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall (ILW). Deuterium ions from neutral beam injection (NBI) with acceleration voltage of 100 keV were accelerated to higher energies in the core of mixed D-3He…

"Fusion product losses due to fishbone instabilities in deuterium JET plasmas"

V. G. Kiptily M. Fitzgerald V. Goloborodko S. E. Sharapov C. D. Challis D. Frigione J. Graves M. J. Mantsinen P. Beaumont M. Garcia-Munoz C. Perez von Thun J. F. R. Rodriguez D. Darrow D. Keeling D. King K. G. McClements E. Solano S. Schmuck G. Sips G. Szepesi JET contributors

During development of a high-performance hybrid scenario for future deuterium–tritium experiments on the Joint European Torus, an increased level of fast ion losses in the MeV energy range was observed during the instability of high-frequency n = 1 fishbones. The fishbones are excited during deuterium neutral beam injection combined with…
