Edge localized mode control with an edge resonant magnetic perturbation [PDF]
A low amplitude (δbr∕BT=1 part in 5000) edge resonant magnetic field perturbation with toroidal mode number n=3 and poloidal mode numbers between 8 and 15 has been used to suppress most large type I edge localized modes (ELMs) without degrading core plasma confinement. ELMs have been suppressed for periods of up to 8.6 energy confinement times when the

Self-trapping and stable localized modes in nonlinear photonic crystals [PDF]
We predict the existence of stable nonlinear localized modes near the band edge of a two-dimensional reduced-symmetry photonic crystal with a Kerr nonlinearity.

Access to stable, high pressure tokamak pedestals using local electron cyclotron current drive
Experiments on the DIII-D tokamak demonstrate that edge localized mode (ELM) stability can be manipulated using localized electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) in conjunction with resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs).

Edge Localized Modes in Tokamaks [PDF]
As one increases the heating power in a tokamak beyond a threshold, the confinement undergoes a bifurcation, with a dramatic increase in the confinement time by a factor ˜2.

Inter-ELM pedestal localized fluctuations in tokamaks: Summary of multi-machine observations
A variety of experimental studies on pedestal localized fluctuations appearing in between crashes of edge localized modes (ELMs) across several tokamaks have been reviewed and summarized.

Statistical translation invariance protects a topological insulator from interactions [PDF]
We investigate the effect of interactions on the stability of a disordered, two-dimensional topological insulator realized as an array of nanowires or chains of magnetic atoms on a superconducting substrate.

Wall conditioning and ELM mitigation with boron nitride powder injection in KSTAR
Results from KSTAR powder injection experiments, in which tens of milligrams of boron nitride (BN) were dropped into low-power H-mode plasmas, show an improvement in wall conditions in subsequent discharges and, in some cases, a reduction or elimination ...

Wide edge state supercontinuum in a Floquet–Lieb topological photonic insulator
Conventional topological photonic insulators typically have narrow nontrivial band gaps truncated by broad dispersive bulk bands, resulting in limited edge mode transmission bandwidths that can be exploited for potential applications.

Homogenized description of defect modes in periodic structures with localized defects [PDF]
A spatially localized initial condition for an energy-conserving wave equation with periodic coefficients disperses (spatially spreads) and decays in amplitude as time advances. This dispersion is associated with the continuous spectrum of the underlying
