Effect of toroidal rotation on the geodesic acoustic mode in magnetohydrodynamics

Theoretical research on the geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) induced by equilibrium toroidal rotation flow in the tokamak plasmas is approached by using ideal magnetohydrodynamic model. The dispersion relation of the GAM is presented by taking into account magnetic field perturbations. It is shown that...

Zusammenfassung:Theoretical research on the geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) induced by equilibrium toroidal rotation flow in the tokamak plasmas is approached by using ideal magnetohydrodynamic model. The dispersion relation of the GAM is presented by taking into account magnetic field perturbations. It is shown that β can decrease the frequency of the GAM.
