| Abstract: | Numerical calculations of resistive internal kink mode with effects of energetic particles (EPs) on HL-2A have been performed using the hybrid kinetic-MHD model inplemented in the NIMROD code. The m/n=1/1 resistive internal kink mode is unstable in MHD limit. However, with kinetic effects of energetic ions, a fishbone mode is excited with mode frequency around 10 kHz. We calculate the impact of resistivity on the growth rate and frequency of ion fishbone mode, and the results are in good agreement with the analytic solutions, which are obtained by solving the fishbone dispertion relation including resistivity effect. The effects of βfrac and cut off velocity of EP on fishbone mode are calculated in detail, where βfrac is the ratio of EP pressure to background plasma pressure. This work presents a clear explanation of the stabilizing effect of ECRH on ion fishbone, which is first observed on HL-2A. |
