主 题:Instabilities Growth Rate Anisotropy
摘 要:By using kinetic theory, we derived the general dispersion relations for ordinary mode (O-mode) and Extra-ordinary mode (X-mode) in anisotropic magnetized plasma. The effects of energy anisotropy, magnetic field to density ratio () and the plasma beta on the propagation characteristics, have been analyzed. The stability analysis and the growth rates have been presented. The marginal threshold condition for oscillatory and purely growing mode has been obtained for higher harmonics and we have also calculated their growth rates in terms of plasma beta and energy anisotropy . The X-mode satisfies the instability condition according to difference of geometry with the O-Mode. These modes are important for spherical tokamaks, and their coupling leads to the generation of the Bernstein mode, which causes the heating effects.
