Konovalov, S. V.; Mikhailovskii, A.*; Kovalishen, E.*; Ozeki, Takahisa; Takizuka, Tomonori; Shirokov, M. S.*

Alfven eigenmodes in tokamaks with reversed magnetic shear are studied theoretically by incorporating into the mode description the effects known theories of Global, Kinetic and Toroidal Alfven Eigenmodes. In particular mode forming effect due to thermal plasma density gradient is examined. Criteria of the fast ion density and its gradient on the existence of a localized solution of the eigenmode equation is softened by this effect. Effects of finite Larmor radius, continuum damping and fast ion density gradient are also studied.
