Antenna excitation of drift wave in a toroidal plasma

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Benoît Labit, Paolo Ricci, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Stefan Müller

In a magnetized toroidal plasma, an antenna tunable in vertical wave number is used to excite density perturbations. Coherent detection is performed by means of Langmuir probes to directly determine both the wave vector and the plasma response induced by t ...

Low Collisionality, Peeling Limited Pedestals in Jet-ilw: Effect of Density and Isotope Mass on Pedestal Structure, Pedestal Stability and Pedestal Prediction in Deuterium and Mixed Deuterium/tritium Plasmas

Benoît Labit

Pedestals limited by peeling instabilities have been reached in JET-ILW by operating at high q95, up to q95=8.5. The increase in q95 via the increase of the toroidal field has stabilized the ballooning modes and has allowed to reach high pedestal temperatu ...
