On the eve of component procurement, this paper discusses the present physics basis for
the first ITER tungsten (W) divertor, beginning with a reminder of the key elements defining …

Controlling the boundary layer in fusion-grade, high-performance, plasma discharges is
essential for the successful development of toroidal magnetic confinement power generating …

The path of tokamak fusion and International thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER) is
maintaining high-performance plasma to produce sufficient fusion power. This effort is …

Progress in the definition of the requirements for edge localized mode (ELM) control and the
application of ELM control methods both for high fusion performance DT operation and non …

Edge localized modes (ELMs) in high-confinement mode plasmas were completely
suppressed in KSTAR by applying n= 1 nonaxisymmetric magnetic perturbations. Initially …

Access conditions for full suppression of edge localised modes (ELMs) by magnetic
perturbations (MP) in low density high confinement mode (H-mode) plasmas are studied in …

Operating ITER in the reference inductive scenario at the design values of I p= 15 MA and Q
DT= 10 requires the achievement of good H-mode confinement that relies on the presence …

Density pumpout and edge-localized mode (ELM) suppression by applied n= 2 magnetic
fields in low-collisionality DIII-D plasmas are shown to be correlated with the magnitude of …

Abstract Since the 2012 International Atomic Energy Agency Fusion Energy Conference
(IAEA-FEC), significant advances in both physics and technology has been made on the …

Experiments have been performed on MAST using both external (n= 1, 2) and internal (n= 3)
resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) coils. ELM suppression has not been achieved even …
