Description

In this work, we analytically investigate energetic particle-driven geodesic acoustic modes (EGAMs) by considering non-circular cross-sections of tokamaks. In the framework of the gyro-kinetic equation, we find that shaping effects can introduce additional energetic particle-wave resonance points at $\omega = n \omega_t^h \left( n = 2, 3, 4 \right)$, where $\omega$ and $\omega_t^h$ are EGAM frequency and transit frequency of energetic particle. Our results show that these additional resonances provide a bridge for energy transfer between energetic particles and the high-frequency branch of EGAMs, which leads to the instability of the high-frequency branch of EGAMs.
