Title:

Alfven Instabilities in FRC Plasma

Date of publication:

Dec. 1997

Key words:

FRC, Stability, Alfven, Anomalous Transport, FIX

Abstract:

The stability. of Alfven-type waves in a Field-Reversed Configuration was studied and preliminary results are presented. Predicted frequency range is found to be in a good agreement with the experimental data. Saturation model has been developed in the framework of nonlinear wave-particle resonant rnodel. The comparison of calculated saturation tirne and fluctuation level with experiment is presented. The model of anomalous transport is discussed.
