[en] Results from the first experiments to excise Alfven eigenmodes (AEs) in the TEXTOR tokamak plasma by using the dynamic ergodic diverter (DED) coils as an external antenna are presented. Notable features of AEs experiments using DED coils are exciting different modes around m/n=12/4, 6/2, 3/1 by changing the coil configuration, studying the effects of magnetic islands and edge magnetic fields ergodization on AEs when the rf current is applied for dc and AC DED operation, etc. The rf current of ≤4A with scanning the frequency 100kHz-1MHz is applied on the one of the DED coils. The coil impedance versus frequency is measured for the plasma (Ip=350 kA, Bt=2.25 T, n_e=2-3x10¹⁹ m^-3) with AC DED (1 kHz, 1.5 kA) and compared with the theoretical calculation. The excited waves are detected by the Mirnov coils installed around the torus. (author)
