| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to realize kinetic analysis of low-frequency modes in tokamak plasmas, a module to calculate dielectric tensors in response to waves in toroidal plasmas with arbitrary velocity distribution functions was developed, and it was combined with a two-dimensional full wave module, and applied to the linear stability analysis of Alfven eigenmodes. In addition, a module for the analysis of velocity distribution functions for energetic particles was extended to analyze with wide energy range and to introduce realistic turbulent diffusion model and particle sources simulating pellet injection; so that the kinetic analysis of time evolution during the burning start up phase becomes available. As a result, self-consistent analysis of excitation and suppression of Alfven eigenmodes with velocity distribution functions of fast ions during burning start up phase in tokamaks.
