Abstract
The mechanism of rapid frequency chirping for neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) is studied. Resonance between NTMs and trapped energetic ions can provide an additional torque to change the evolution of frequency. Whether the frequency rises or falls depends on the direction of island propagation. If the island propagates in the direction of ion diamagnetic drift, the frequency will be increased dramatically and rapidly. If the island propagates in the direction of electron diamagnetic drift, the frequency will be reduced to a lower value. The predicted chirping time is consistent with experimental results in DIII-D (Liu et al 2020 Nucl. Fusion
60 112009).
