Pedestal structure and energy confinement studies on TCV

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Patrick Blanchard, Benoît Labit, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Umar Sheikh, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui

High external gas injection rates are foreseen for future devices to reduce divertor heat loads and this can influence pedestal stability. Fusion yield has been estimated to vary as strongly as T-e,ped(2) so an understanding of the underlying pedestal phys ...

Physics and performance of the I-mode regime over an expanded operating space on Alcator C-Mod

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Yu Lin

New results on the I-mode regime of operation on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak are reported. This ELM-free regime features high energy confinement and a steep temperature pedestal, while particle confinement remains at L-mode levels, giving stationary density ...

Multi-device studies of pedestal physics and confinement in the I-mode regime

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Alessandro Marinoni

This paper describes joint ITPA studies of the I-mode regime, which features an edge thermal barrier together with L-mode-like particle and impurity transport and no edge localized modes (ELMs). The regime has been demonstrated on the Alcator C-Mod, ASDEX ...

Improved confinement in high-density H-modes via modification of the plasma boundary with lower hybrid waves

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Yu Lin, Peng Xu

Injecting Lower Hybrid Range of Frequency (LHRF) waves into Alcator C-Mod's high-density H-mode plasmas has led to enhanced global energy confinement by increasing pedestal temperature and pressure gradients, decreasing the separatrix density, modifying th ...
