Dynamics of shear Alfvén waves and energetic particles are crucial to the performance of
burning fusion plasmas. This article reviews linear as well as nonlinear physics of shear …

The excitation of collective instabilities by super-thermal particles in hot plasmas and the
related transport processes attract increasing interest due to their fundamental challenges …

We derive the E× B shearing rate associated with vortex flow inside a macroscopic magnetic
island (MI) in axisymmetric toroidal geometry. Due to the elongation of the MI and …

The β-induced Alfvén eigenmode (BAE) excited by energetic electrons has been identified
for the first time both in the Ohmic and electron cyclotron resonance heating plasma in HL …

Interaction between shear Alfvén wave (SAW) and energetic particles (EPs) is one of major
concerns in magnetically confined plasmas since it may lead to excitation of toroidal …

The J-TEXT tokamak is featured with experimental researches with the application of the
resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) field. The interaction between RMP and the tearing …

In these short, rather informal, expository notes I review the current state of the field
regarding the mathematics of Landau damping, based on lectures given at the CIRM …

The dynamics of energetic particles and tearing modes and the interactions between them
are of great significance for magnetically confined fusion plasmas. In this review, we focus …

Investigations of beta-induced Alfvén eigenmodes (BAEs) destabilized by resonant
magnetic perturbations (RMPs) have been conducted on the J-TEXT tokamak. In the Ohmic …

Multiple toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) driven unstable by energetic electrons and a
geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) have been successively observed in the Experimental …
