Description of the activity

MHD activity produced by Alfvén Eigenmodes (AEs) is routinely observed in NBI-heated TJ-II plasmas [2]. The results provided by recently installed sets of helical magnetic coils complement the previous experimental data and, together with advanced analysis tools like the 3D Lomb periodogram [3] allows the determination of the AEs spatial periodicity with an accuracy non reachable so far.
