Plasma Diasnostic in Tokamaks Using Alfvén Waves

In this work we investigated the excitation of Alfvén eigenmodes in tokamaks using external antennas to the plasma column. The basic theory of Alfvén waves is revised, including non-ideal effects such as resistivity. Then the theoretical model for excitation Alfvén waves in a cylindrical plasma...
