摘要：

The stability of beta-induced Alfven eigenmodes (BAE) and the low frequency modes (LFMs) that were formerly called beta-induced Alfven-acoustic eigenmodes is discussed. After a brief summary of previous publications on the stability in DIII-D beam-heated, reversed-shear, deuterium plasmas with deuterium neutral beam injection (NBI), new observations in mixed hydrogen and deuterium plasmas are reported. With deuterium NBI, BAEs are at least as unstable in mixed-species plasmas as in deuterium plasmas; however, with hydrogen NBI, the BAEs are stable. In contrast, the LFMs are unaffected by changes in beam species, consistent with the previous observation that LFMs are not driven by high-energy beam ions. As predicted by theory, the LFMs appear more unstable in mixed species plasmas than in pure deuterium discharges.
