Abstract

Some properties of the frequency spectrum of magnetic fluctuations in a tokamak two-species plasma are investigated. We start from the nonlinear resistive ballooning kinetic equation. A method based on the fluctuation-dissipation theorem of thermodynamics is employed. The frequency range |ωDe|/ω>|ω*e| is considered. The dependence of magnetic fluctuations on frequency and various macroscopic parameters is discussed. The influence of magnetic fluctuations on plasma thermodynamics is investigated.
