Localized direct electron heating (EH) by mode-converted (MC) ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) waves in D(H) tokamak plasmas has been clearly observed for the first time in Alcator C-Mod. Both on- and off-axis (high field side) mode conversion EH ...
An over-moded evacuated waveguide line was chosen for use in the transmission system for the proposed JET enhanced performance project (JET-EP) electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) system. A comparison between the quasi-optical, atmospheric waveguid ...
The large physical size of the JET tokamak, its heating systems and diagnostics, and its capability to operate with full deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasmas, including high-power tritium neutral beam injection (NBI), give it unique possibilities in fast partic ...
A high-density, ELM-free, 'enhanced Dalpha' (EDA) H-mode has been demonstrated with Ohmic or RF heating on the Alcator C-Mod device. An allied 'low particle confinement' H-regime was also observed previously in 'Mk0' divertor experiments on JET. Initial at ...
A systematic procedure to identify the plasma equilibrium response to the poloidal field coil voltages has been applied to the JT-60U tokamak. The required response was predicted with a high accuracy by a state-space model derived from first principles. Th ...

The temporal evolution of the sawtooth crash in ASDEX Upgrade Ohmic and ECRH heated discharges is analysed using a heuristic reconnection model to simulate measured ECE signals. The method turns out to be well suited to detect islands of width above 0.1-0. ...
Industry benefits in a number of different ways from the research and technology activities of the European Fusion Programme, overseen by the European Commission. These benefits range from: winning contracts to supply equipment and services to fusion labor ...
Results from MAST provide a first test of neoclassical tearing mode physics in the spherical tokamak (ST). The mode accounts for the main performance limit in conventional tokamaks. Its behavior in the ST is remarkably well described by existing theoretica ...
Transport phenomena in tokamak plasmas strongly limit the particle and energy confinement and represent a crucial obstacle to controlled thermonuclear fusion. Within the vast framework of transport studies, three topics have been tackled in the present the ...
