This paper presents a review of multi-scale interactions between small-scale turbulence and
large scale magnetic islands. In finite beta plasmas, zonal flows are relatively weak, and …

The first nonlinear gyrokinetic turbulence simulations that quantitatively reproduce
experimental transport levels in an H-mode pedestal are reported. In the JET-ILW (ITER-like …

In recent decades, great progress has been made in our understanding of zonal jets across
many subjects-atmospheric science, oceanography, planetary science, geophysical fluid …

The impact of electromagnetic stabilization and flow shear stabilization on ITG turbulence is
investigated. Analysis of a low-β JET L-mode discharge illustrates the relation between ITG …

JET has been unable to recover historical confinement levels when operating with an ITER-
like wall (ILW) due largely to the inaccessibility of high pedestal temperatures. Finding a …

Magnetic reconnection in strongly magnetized (low-beta), weakly collisional plasmas is
investigated by using a novel fluid-kinetic model [Zocco and Schekochihin, Phys. Plasmas …

This paper explores the fundamental characteristics of electron-temperature-gradient (ETG)-
driven turbulence in the tokamak pedestal. The extreme gradients in the pedestal produce …

In order to realize high performance burning plasmas in magnetic-confinement fusion
devices, such as tokamaks, both bulk plasma transport and that of energetic fusion alpha …

In this study, gyrokinetic simulations are used to study pedestal fluctuations for DIII-D
discharge 174082 using the GENE code. Nonlinear local simulations indicate that electron …

The pedestal profile measurements in high triangularity JET plasmas show that with low
fuelling the pedestal width decreases during the ELM cycle and with high fuelling it stays …
