Observation of Molybdenum Emission from Impurity-Induced Long-Lived m=1 Mode on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak

Description
Summary:We observe the spectra of molybdenum for the first time since the first wall of our experimental advanced superconducting tokamak （EAST） was changed mainly to molybdenum tiles. A large amount of molybdenum accumulated in the central plasma where the long-lived m = 1 mode instability bursts is shown. Molybdenum is proved to be the main impurity species observed during the formation and lifetime of impurity-induced long-lived m= 1 mode. This may indicate that a close relationship exists between the high-Z impurity accumulation and the occurrence of long-lived m = 1 mode in EAST plasmas.
