Times Cited Count：7 Percentile：24.19(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)Neoclassical Tearing Modes, NTMs, are known to limit the maximum attainable plasma pressure, degrade confinement and, at worst, culminate in disruption of the tokamak discharges. Key role in NTM evolution belongs to the radial profiles of the plasma flow, temperature and density which are determined by the conjunction of the longitudinal and cross-filed transport arising from thermal conduction, particle diffusion, and viscosity. In this report the influence of anomalous perpendicular heat transport and anomalous ion perpendicular viscosity on early stage of the NTM evolution is studied theoretically.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：11.67(Mechanics)Effect of feedback system, placed outside the vacuum vessel, on neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) in tokamaks is analytically studied. External matching parameters for magnetic island chain are derived for the simplest case of step profile of equilibrium parallel current. The structure of dynamical equations for the island width and island rotation frequency in terms of matching parameters is explained. It is shown that such a feedback system can lead to essential shift of the island rotation, in particular, for stabilization of NTMs by the polarization current effect.

Times Cited Count：6 Percentile：19.57(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)Analytical treatment of magnetic islands with high poloidal mode numbers and widths smaller than ion Larmor radius (microislands) is presented. The profile functions and rotation frequencies of microislands are investigated with the two-fluid magnetohydrodynamics. The microislands are described in terms of two profile functions, one of which characterizes the electric field and perturbed plasma density, and second the perturbed electron temperature. The problem of rotation frequencies of microislands is discussed.

Times Cited Count：8 Percentile：25.48(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)A transport threshold model of subsonic neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) in tokamaks is developed. The basic procedure is to include the velocity-dependent term into the single-fluid heat-conductivity equation. and to supply the parallel plasma motion equation. These equations permit the determination of the perturbed plasma temperature and the bootstrap current drive of NTMs, for both strong and weak perpendicular heat transport. It is shown that the subsonic NTMs transport threshold model can be more realistic than the standard transport threshold model of NTMs.

Times Cited Count：5 Percentile：16.72(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)A fluid treatment of convective-transport threshold model of neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) in tokamaks is developed. A system of moment equations of the drift kinetic equation with a model perpendicular transport is derived. The essence of this moment equation system is to allow for the parallel heat flux on an equal footing with pressure and temperature. The suggested moment equation system is applied for analyzing the bootstrap current drive of NTMs. As a result, a threshold model of these modes is derived, which coincides qualitatively with the convective-transport threshold model initially formulated by means of intuitive consideration.

Times Cited Count：2 Percentile：6.00(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)The problem of drift stabilization of internal resistive-wall modes (RWMs) in tokamaks is theoretically investigated. The basic assumption of our model is that these modes are unstable in the absence of a conducting wall and stable in the presence of a close-fitting ideally conducting wall, when drift effects are neglected. Stability of the internal RWMs, was estimated for several existing tokamaks contributing to the ITER data base, namely, AUG (ASDEX-Upgrade), DIII-D, JET, TFTR and JT-60U, as well as for the projected ITER-FEAT. It is concluded that although drift effects do not stabilize the internal RWMs in current devices, they should be effective for suppressing these modes in reactor-grade tokamaks.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：12.75(Mechanics)It is shown that there is a new class of perturbations, limiting the pressure of ideally stable plasma in the conditions of fusion reactors of tokamak type. localization of such modes includes three characteristic regions: large-scale (MHD), Larmor and sub-Larmor ones. It is suggested that these modes can be responsible for spontaneous generation of neoclassical tearing modes observed experimentally.
