Formation and Stability of Impurity “Snakes” in Tokamak Plasmas

Formation and Stability of Impurity “Snakes” in Tokamak Plasmas

New observations of the formation and dynamics of long-lived impurity-induced helical “snake” modes in tokamak plasmas have recently been carried out on Alcator C-Mod. The snakes form as an asymmetry in the impurity ion density that undergoes a seamless transition from a small helically displaced de...
