Exhaust of turbulence cloud at the tongue shaped deformation event

摘要

Exhaust of turbulence cloud at the tongue-shaped deformation which triggers MHD bursts is observed in the Large Helical Device in the low density plasma with significant contribution of trapped particles injected by perpendicular neutral beam injection. The exhaust of turbulence cloud is characterized by the abrupt large increase of turbulence amplitude in the frequency range of 150-500 kHz measured with Doppler reflectometer at the edge region of the plasma (r_(eff)/a_(99) = 0.98). The increase of turbulence amplitude is significantly large and is by one order of magnitude. This abrupt increase of turbulence level is transient and disappears within one milli-second (typically ～600 μs). In contrast, the turbulence level slightly inside the plasma edge (r_(eff)/a_(99) = 0.94) decreases by a factor of 2 after the MHD bursts.
