摘要

除了高温和高密度外,磁聚变还需要对热等离子体进行良好的约束和一定程度的输运控制。同时,用于提高等离子体温度的外部加热和聚变反应产生快速离子。结果,聚变等离子体被有效地呈现为具有两个主要兴趣群共存的系统-即快离子和热等离子体。有趣的是,最近的几个实验表明,快离子种群可以通过减轻湍流来改善热等离子体的约束。在这篇综述中,我们描述了支持改进约束的物理机制,并讨论了这些机制方面的最新实验结果。实验表明,在聚变等离子体中产生的快速离子通过减轻等离子体湍流来改善约束。本综述探讨了可能的物理机制来解释这些实验结果。

How fast ions mitigate turbulence and enhance confinement in tokamak fusion plasmas

How fast ions mitigate turbulence and enhance confinement in tokamak fusion plasmas
Along with high temperature and density, magnetic fusion requires good confinement and a degree of transport control for thermal plasmas. Meanwhile, fast ions are generated by the external heating used to raise plasma temperature and by the fusion reactions. As a result, the fusion plasmas are effectively rendered into systems with two coexisting populations of main interest — namely, the fast ions and the thermal plasma. Interestingly, several recent experiments indicate that the fast-ion population can improve the confinement of the thermal plasmas by mitigating turbulence. In this Review, we describe the physical mechanisms that underpin the improved confinement and discuss recent experimental results in terms of these mechanisms. Experiments have shown that fast ions generated in fusion plasmas improve confinement by mitigating plasma turbulence. This Review explores possible physical mechanisms to explain these experimental observations.
