AbstractAbstract
[en] A numerical code using field line tracing for modeling the three-dimensional magnetic field topology under resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) has been developed and applied in Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) 2014 campaign. Currently, the model is simplified by using vacuum paradigm and neglecting the toroidal field ripple. The modeling result predicts that the possible strike point splitting on plasma facing component and the lobes like structure on the boundary are observable in various diagnostics at different locations. lt is shown that the strike point splitting strongly depends on the edge stochasticity, which is a combined effect of both perturbation spectrum and equi librium properties. In a lower single null configuration, it is found that RMP may also change the magnetic structure near the upper x-point and form a similar strike point splitting on the upper divertor. It depends on the distance between the two separatrix, which threshold value depends on both the RMP strength and the equilibrium properties. To examine the RMP system on EAST and its effect on plasmas, some experiments with RMPs were hold in the 2014 campaign. The static and rotational perturbation were both tested and results confirm the RMP efficiency. Particle flux profiles on divertor targets measured by divertor probes had verified the existing strike point splitting induced by RMPs. The results are consistent with the numerical modeling within measurement uncertainties and confirm the edge stochasticity induced by RMPs. (author)
