Nonlinearity of LH wave absorption
The plasma temperature in HL-2A is much lower than that in future reactor. To establish RS configuration, the LH driven current should be located off-axis where the plasma temperature is even lower, and the plasma absorption of high phase velocity LH waves is too weak to ensure the waves are damped during their first pass.

In the tokamak toroidal geometry intrinsic poloidal asymmetry breaks the invariance of m, causing formation of a thick stochastic layer in the ray phase space. In the LHCD discharges on Tore Supra, a regime with stationary oscillation behavior has been observed because of the nonlinearly coupling effect of both wave-plasma interaction and turbulence suppression by the RS q profile. It is interpreted as that the current density and electron temperature profiles behave as a predator-prey system [Giruzzi, G., et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 91 Fig, 11 Surface-s of section in the (m, ) plane for two parameter sets on Tore Supra. (2003) 135001].

LH wave absorption regime
Strong Landau Damping Limit If the LH wave phase velocity is higher than 3.5 times the electron thermal velocity, there are too few velocity-resonant electrons to carry driven current density comparable with the ohmic current density.

In the weak electron Landau damping condition LH wave rays make many passes through the wave propagation domain in plasma and undergo numerous reflections at the propagation boundaries. Considering the propagation of lower-hybrid waves in a tokamak. The phase space energy density of the rf field is denoted by U( x, k, t), where x is the position vector, k is the wave vector. U obeys the WKE,

The above solution of the WKE can be classified into two distinct para-meter regimes: (i) the multipass regime (for 1), when U tends to be uniform along the entire ray orbit in the (r, k) plane, and (ii) the singlepass regime (for > 5) when nearly all the power is absorbed before the ray reaches the caustic. In the multi-pass regime, the absorption due to electron Landau damping is strongly peaked at the caustic.
