RMP ffcts apparntly dpnd on collisionality: low 4 (DIII-D) ELMs ar supprssd in narrow q 95 rsonanc windows, high 5 (ASDEX-U) ELMs mitigatd at high dnsity, no rsonanc ffcts.

7 Transport Effcts Of RMPs: Fluttr Or Stochasticity? RMP-inducd radial (ρ) magntic prturbations δb ρ : mostly just non-rsonantly spatially fluttr th fild lins, flux surfacs, but can induc stochasticity if islands ar cratd and ovrlap (Chirikov). Transport can b inducd by magntic fluttr and stochasticity: fluttr causs 1 χ δb v T λ (δb ρ /B ) 2 via finit collisional ( Braginskii) paralll lctron hat conduction lctron collision-inducd irrvrsibility; stochasticity causs (RR 3 ) χ δb st v T L c (δb st /B ) 2 via motion along B st. But flow scrning of RMP filds inhibits rconnction, island formation & ovrlap, and hnc stochasticity nxt 2 viwgraphs. Nonthlss, δb ρ off rational surfacs inducs fluttr xport. 1 JDC/CEMM talk, UW-Madison Jun 13, 212, p 7

11 What Physics Causs Magntic Fluttr Transport? 1,2 Considr paralll hat conduction in a prturbd B fild: Rprsnt magntic fild by axisymmtric B plus RMP fild: B = B +δ B. Radial prturbation δ ˆB ρ m/n (x) cos(mθ nζ) inducs finit hat flow along B nar m/n surfac. For T = T (ρ) and nglcting magntic shar k (x)v T < ν] δ q m/n n χ ( B B B 2 T ) n χ B δ ˆB ρ m/n B 2 cos(mθ nζ) dt dρ B + δ B B δq m/n. Avrag radial (ˆ ρ ) hat flow inducd by collisional hat flow along B is ˆ ρ q ˆ ρ B + δ B B δq m/n = δ ˆB ρ m/n cos(mθ nζ) δq m/n. This rsults in a radial lctron thrmal diffusivity of 1,2 χ m/n = 1 2 ( δ ˆB plasma ρ m/n B ) 2 χ, which is to b summd ovr all mn magntic prturbations. Vry small RMP-inducd filds can induc significant χ m/n For DIII-D pdstal 2 1 m2 χ 1 s, so δ ˆB plasma ρ m/n /B 2 > 1 5 yilds χ m/n valus: But magntic shar rducs ffctiv χ for x > δ.2 cm. > 1 m2 s.

13 Fluttr Transport Modl Employs Som Assumptions 1) RMP-inducd prturbations ar gyroradius small: δb ρ /B ρ S /R < 1 3.

(Modl okay outsid islands that do occur.) 4) Intrplay btwn ffctiv lctron collision frquncy ν ff and paralll straming k (x) v T causs T ρ dt /dρ, i.., T to b roughly constant on axisymmtric (not hlical) flux surfacs. 5) Significant flow-scrnd RMP-fluttr rsponss xtnd radially ovr a numbr of rational surfacs: m 2nq /k θ ( 5).

15 Spatial Factor F m/n (x) Varis A Lot And Is Important F m/n (x) has diffrnt scalings in various radial rgions ( x < 1/k θ ): F m/n (x) (δ ˆB plasma ρ m/n /δ ˆB ρ vac m/n )2 magntic shar ffct = 1/f scr 2 k2 θ + x2 δ c 2 + x2 larg, x δ c, x 2, transition, 1, x 1/f scr k θ. This causs diffrnt bhavior for various scrning modls: Rsistiv MHD with f scr 3, δ c 1/f scr k θ = F m/n 1 = constant. Visco-rs. 2-fluid 6 MHD with f scr 4 = highly pakd, F m/n () 6. Collisional pdstal 5 with δ c 1/f scr k θ 2 cm = also F m/n 1. This spatial factor has a significant ffct on th T gradint: 2 dt dρ P /V ρ 2 n χ RMP = P /V ρ 2 n mn χrf m/n F m/n(x) 1 mn F m/n(x).
