  • 实验提出托卡马克中的等离子体频率附近的增强辐射现象与高能逃逸电子有关,但是辐射的机制尚未完全弄清。本文讨论了两种可能的机制。一种是诱发辐射,这是来自逃逸电子与波的反常迴旋共振。另一种是自发辐射,主要来自契仑柯夫共振。前者要求逃逸电子的能量比后者为大,因此,自发辐射理论更引人注意。在很宽的参数变化范围内对辐射率作了数值计算。对于等离子体频率大于迴旋频率的情况也作了讨论。

     

    This paper is concerned with the phenomenon of enhanced plasma-frequency radiation in Tokamaks which has attracted much attention recently. Experimental results indicate that the radiation is associated with high energy runaway electrons. However the emission mechanism has not been completely understood. In this paper we review and discuss two possible processes which can explain the observed enhanced radiation. One is an induced emission process which is due to an anomalous cyclotron resonance of the runaway electrons with waves. The other is a spontaneous radiation process mainly due to Cherenkov resonance. The former requires higher energies of the runaway electrons than that required in the latter. Thus the theory of the spontaneous emission is more appealing and deserve more attention. Extensive numerical calculations of the emissivity have been performed over a broad range of parameters. The discussion is also extended to the case in which the electron plasma frequency is higher than the cyclotron frequency, a situation may be reached by Alcator.
