Nonlinear dynamics of energetic-particle driven geodesic acoustic modes in ASDEX Upgrade

Laurent Villard, Alberto Bottino, Emmanuel Lanti, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Emanuele Poli

Turbulence in tokamaks generates radially sheared zonal flows. Their oscillatory counterparts, geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs), appear due to the action of the magnetic field curvature. The GAMs can be driven unstable by an anisotropic energetic particle (E ...
