The resonant interaction between energetic-particles and tearing mode is an unresolved physics issue at present. It found for the first time in tokamaks that unstable with slowly rotating m/n = 2/1 helicity, where represent poloidal/toroidal mode-numbers, interacts energetic-ions results amplitude-bursting/frequency-chirping fishbone-like activities.

Abstract Mitigation of long-lived mode (LLM) by lower hybrid wave (LHW) is recently achieved on the HL-2A tokamak. The LLM changes from a typical steady-state to fishbone-like frequency-chirping characteristic, and its higher poloidal harmonics disappear when LHW injected into toroidal plasma. It found that density fluctuation declines during this process while total neutron count increases gradually. Those evidences indicate there mitigation effect LLM, underlying mechanism can be explained...
Numerical research is conducted to investigate the effects of plasma boundary shape on tearing mode triggering explosive bursts in toroidal tokamak plasmas.
