The features of ion and electron fishbone instabilities have been investigated during neutral beam injection (NBI) cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) on HL-2A. Some new phenomena, such as frequency jumps V-font-style sweeping, presented in the paper. Three kinds i-fishbones, including hybrid sawtooth–fishbone (sawbone), run-on classical fishbone, identified NBI. During high power ( P ECRH > 0.7 MW) ECRH, experimental results indicate that e-fishbone frequencies are higher than those low...

However, manually annotating new tables added a large repository is expensive may be inconsistent.
