Abstract
The scalings of double tearing mode (DTM) with various values of resistivity and viscosity have been investigated numerically by using a magneto hydrodynamic model in slab geometry. It is found that the growth rate changes from γ∝η3/5ν0 to γ∝η5/6ν-1/6 when the distance between two rational surfaces 2xs is sufficiently large. On the other hand, when the distance between two rational surfaces 2xs is very small, the scaling of γ and η and ν changes from γ∝η1/3ν0 to γ∝η2/3ν-1/3 as the viscosity increases. Moreover, the nonlinear evolution of symmetrical DTM is investigated in this paper. The study shows that the symmetrical DTM transforms to unsymmetrical DTM in the final phase.
