Abstract: The high-Z impurity accumulation in the plasma core could degrade the plasma performance and may affect sawtooth crash and trigger tearing modes (TMs) in experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST). Triggering of m/n = 3/2 TM… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion"

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6587/59/2/025007

Abstract: We diagnose local properties of magnetic reconnection during a sawtooth crash employing the three-dimensional toroidal, extended-magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code M3D-C1. To do so, we sample simulation data in the plane in which reconnection occurs, the plane… read more here.
