| fishbones | medical dictionary |
<radiobiology> Oscillations in soft X-ray emissions which occur during intense neutral-beam heating, associated with a recurring m=1 internal kink mode. Mode was given its name from its characteristic signal (looked like the bones of a fish, of course). Fishbones are associated with loss of fast ions from the plasma and are triggered by exceeding the upper limit on plasma beta.
