Isotope effects and Alfvén eigenmode stability in JET H, D, T, DT, and He plasmas by R.A. Tinguely, P.G. Puglia, S. Dowson, M. Porkolab, D. Douai, A. Fasoli, L. Frassinetti, D. King, P. Schneider, JET Contributors

“…In particular, if radiative damping plays a significant role in overall stability, some AEs could be more easily destabilized in D/T plasmas than their H/He reference pulses, even before considering fast ion and alpha particle drive. Active MHD spectroscopy is also employed on select HD, HT, and DT plasmas to infer the effective ion mass, thereby closing the loop on isotope analysis and demonstrating a complementary method to typical diagnosis of the isotope ratio.…”
