Abstract: The work deals with discrete Alfvén eigenmodes in optimized stellarators of the Wendelstein line. It is shown that core-localized Alfvén eigenmodes do exist in these systems. In particular, mirror-induced Alfvén eigenmodes (MAE) and helicity-induced Alfvén eigenmodes (HAEsi) localized in the plasma core of the four-period Helias reactor are found. The results are obtained by solving numerically an eigenmode equation derived in Ya. Kolesnichenko et al. Phys. Plasmas, 8, 491 (2001).
