ELM triggering conditions for the integrated modeling of H-mode plasmas
Recent advances in the integrated modeling of ELMy H-mode plasmas are presented. A model for the H-mode pedestal and for the triggering of ELMs predicts the height, width, and shape of the H-mode pedestal and the frequency and width of ELMs. Formation of

Recent H-mode density limit studies at JET [PDF]
Extensive studies of the H-mode density limit (DL) in JET gas-puffed discharges have been performed in the past four years targeting at an improved database for extrapolation to ITER.

“Snowflake” H Mode in a Tokamak Plasma [PDF]
An edge-localized mode (ELM) H-mode regime, supported by electron cyclotron heating, has been successfully established in a "snowflake" (second-order null) divertor configuration for the first time in the TCV tokamak. This regime exhibits 2 to 3 times lower ELM frequency and 20%-30% increased normalized ELM energy (ΔWELM/Wp) compared to an identically ...

Gyrokinetic studies of core turbulence features in ASDEX Upgrade H-mode plasmas
Gyrokinetic validation studies are crucial in developing confidence in the model incorporated in numerical simulations and thus improving their predictive capabilities.

Effect of turbulence on electron cyclotron current drive and heating in ITER [PDF]
Non-linear local electromagnetic gyrokinetic turbulence simulations of the ITER standard scenario H-mode are presented for the q=3/2 and q=2 surfaces. The turbulent transport is examined in regions of velocity space characteristic of electrons heated by ...

Characteristics of edge pedestals in LHW and NBI heated H-mode plasmas on EAST
By using the recently developed Thomson scattering diagnostic, the pedestal structure of the H-mode with neutral beam injection (NBI) or/and lower hybrid wave (LHW) heating on EAST (Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak) is analyzed in detail. We

Strong ExB shear flows in the pedestal region in H-mode plasma
We report the first experimental observation of stationary zonal flows in the pedestal region of the H-mode plasma in the H-1 toroidal heliac. Strong peaks in E_r shear mark the top and foot of the density pedestal.

I-mode studies at ASDEX Upgrade: L-I and I-H transitions, pedestal and confinement properties [PDF]
The I-mode is a plasma regime obtained when the usual L-H power threshold is high, e.g. with unfavourable ion B ∇ direction. It is characterised by the development of a temperature pedestal while the density remains roughly as in the L-mode ...

β Limits in H-mode-like discharges [PDF]
Recent tokamak beta optimization studies have indicated the existence of a \(\beta\) limit proportional to the plasma current. A two-step numerical optimization procedure is described for finding \(\beta\) limits in tokamak configurations with peaked current and flat pressure profiles, such as are believed to be characteristic of H-mode plasmas ...
