Observation of bi-directional global Alfvén eigenmodes in the MAST-U tokamak
The first observations and classification of deuterium beam-driven sub-cyclotron frequency range Alfvén eigenmodes (AEs) are presented for the MAST-Upgrade tokamak. Sets of observed eigenmodes are separated in frequency by approximately 200 kHz.

Magneto-acoustic waves in a gravitationally stratified magnetized plasma: eigen-solutions and their applications to the solar atmosphere [PDF]
Magneto-acoustic gravity (MAG) waves have been studied intensively in the context of astrophysical plasmas. There are three popular choices of analytic modeling using a Cartesian coordinate system: a magnetic field parallel, perpendicular, or at an angle

Characteristics of the Alfvénic activity during the current quench in ASDEX Upgrade
ASDEX Upgrade has developed multiple massive gas injection (MGI) scenarios to investigate runaway electron (RE) dynamics. During the current quench of the MGI induced disruptions, Alfvénic activity is observed in the 300–800 kHz range. With the help of a

A model for Alfvén-eigenmode-induced transport of fast ions in stellarators
A novel model for Alfvén-eigenmode-induced transport of fast ions in stellarators is introduced. A variety of reduced transport models exists for tokamaks, but nothing comparable currently exists for stellarators.

Hybrid kinetic-MHD modeling of alpha-driven TAEs in the SPARC tokamak
As the magnetic confinement fusion community prepares for the next generation of fusion devices and burning plasmas, there is still a question of whether fast ions (FIs) will drive MHD instabilities, causing significant redistribution or even loss of FIs,

Damped transverse oscillations of interacting coronal loops
Damped transverse oscillations of magnetic loops are routinely observed in the solar corona. This phenomenon is interpreted as standing kink magnetohydrodynamic waves, which are damped by resonant absorption owing to plasma inhomogeneity across the ...

Overview of fast particle experiments in the first MAST Upgrade experimental campaigns
MAST-U is equipped with on-axis and off-axis neutral beam injectors (NBI), and these external sources of super-Alfvénic deuterium fast-ions provide opportunities for studying a wide range of phenomena relevant to the physics of alpha-particles in burning
