Description
Experiments devoted to the study of MHD activity have been carried out on TORE SUPRA. The observed disruptions are preceded by the growth of an m=2 N=1 rotating mode which locks when the magnetic field perturbation exceeds a critical value. The mode locking is interpreted as a bifurcation of the mode frequency. In addition, stabilization of the m=2 N=1 tearing mode has been obtained with the Ergodic Divertor (ED).
