What will be addressed here?
• plasma– (coupling)– waves– absorption
how, why those frequencies, mechanisms, practical applications
• with side glances at– technology, to show that we can do it– experiments, to show that it works
• emphasize– concepts– physical understanding
• goal– working knowledge for experiments

jmn2008.17.6
Waves
• waves in neutral gas– pressure waves
– EM waves in vaccuum
• waves in medium with free charged particles, magnetised
successive approximations/simplifications
– electrons, several ion species, arbitrary distribution function
plasma kinetic theory
– electrons, ions (one or more types), fluid equations
cold plasma -> two fluid -> CMA diagram
– one electrically conducting fluid
MHD

– (warm plasma)
• power absorption
– warm plasma

jmn2008.17.9
Power Absorption
• energy in the wave can be affected by energy transferbetween wave
and particles (wave-particle resonance)
or other wave (wave resonance)
• absorption mechanismalways particles
• note :– wave-particle resonance : only few particles fulfill resonance conditions
– wave resonance :collective effect : all particles fulfill conditions

Power deposition with ω = nωc depends on the finite orbit widths of fast ICRF-accelerated ions.
Fast ions orbits, and thus the power deposition, can be modified using toroidally directed waves.
Absorption of wave toroidal angular momentum ICRF-induced pinch of fast ions.
Turning points of trapped fast ion orbits are driven either outwards or inwards, depending on the direction of wave propagation.
