Fishbone instability excited by electrons in a tokamak

  • 1. Southwestern Inst. of Physics, Chengdu (China)

Description

Fishbone instability in Tokamak plasma is often produced by deeply trapped suprathermal ions. Theoretical analysis indicates that the instability can be excited by barely trapped suprathermal electrons. Negative magnetic shear help exciting electron fishbone or suppress ion one, while positive shear is opposite. The fishbone instability purely driven by suprathermal trapped electrons is firstly identified by using electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) in the HL-1M Tokamak
