摘要:

在T-10托卡马克装置(R= 150 cm,a = 30 cm)上,用重离子束探针(HIBP)诊断,在离轴ECRH(B = 2.33T,Ip= 220 kA,r_ECRH=12 cm)区,研究了频率为15-30 kHz的特定振荡。先前的OH区实验表明,“20 kHz”模式主要是电势起伏。这些振荡在HIBP、朗缪尔探针和反射计的信号上可见。它们将引起极向旋转的波动,即m=0的扭转等离子体振荡,称为纬向流。HIBP样品体积位于r = 24 - 29 cm。观察到在OH和ECRH区,电势振荡的功率谱都是孤立的准单色峰,对比度范围为3-5。“20 kHz”模式的频率在观察区域内变化;它在22-24厘米处从20 kHz到28-29厘米处的13-15 kHz逐渐减小。在ECRH接通之后,频率增加,与电子温度Te的增长相关,通过在最近的弦24 cm上的2次ECE谐波测量。分析表明,“20 kHz”模式的频率随局部T_e变化:f_20 ~ T_e**1/2,这类似于测地声学模式(GAM)的理论标度:f_GAM ~ c_s/R ~ T_e**1/2,其中cs是声速。绝对频率接近GAM值,在一个因子内(1.12-1.5)。

英文摘要:

Investigation of the specific oscillations with frequencies 15-30 kHz on the T-10 tokamak (R= 150cm, a = 30 cm) with Heavy Ion Beam Probe (HIBP) diagnostic was conducted in regimes with off-axis ECRH (B = 2.33 T, Ip= 220 kA, r_ECRH=12 cm). Previous experiments in OH regimes have shown that "20 kHz" modes are mainly the potential fluctuations. These oscillations are seen on the signals of HIBP, Langmuir probes and reflectometry. They should cause the fluctuations of the poloidal rotation, i.e. the torsional plasma oscillations with m=0, called as the zonal flows. The HIBP sample volume was localized at r = 24 - 29 cm. It was observed that both in OH and ECRH regimes, the power spectrum of potential oscillations has a form of solitary quasi-monochromatic peak with the contrast range of 3-5. The frequency of "20 kHz" mode is varied in the region of observation; it diminishes to the plasma edge from 20 kHz at 22-24 cm till 13-15 kHz at 28-29 cm. After ECRH switch-on, the frequency increases, correlating with growth of the electron temperature Te, measured by 2-nd ECE harmonic on the nearest chord 24 cm. Analysis have shown that frequency of the "20 kHz" mode is varied with local T_e: f_20 ~ T_e**1/2 that is similar to a theoretical scaling for Geodesic Acoustic Modes (GAM): f_GAM ~ c_s/R ~ T_e**1/2, where cs is a sound speed. The absolute frequencies are close to GAM values within a factor of unity (1.12-1.5).
