H-mode pedestal scaling in DIII-D, ASDEX Upgrade, and JET

TL;DR: In this paper, a scaling of the pedestal width in the DIII-D, ASDEX upgrade (AUG) and JET tokamaks is presented in order to test two plasminar width models, one based on the radial extent of a pedestal being set by the point where the linear turbulence growth rate exceeds the ExB velocity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modification of high mode pedestal instabilities in the DIII-D tokamak

TL;DR: In this paper, the amplitude and frequency of H-mode discharges in the edge region of tokamak high mode discharges [type I edge-localized modes (ELMs)] are shown to depend on the discharge shape.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlations between quasi-coherent fluctuations and the pedestal evolution during the inter-edge localized modes phase on DIII-Da)

TL;DR: In this paper, quasi-coherent fluctuations (QCFs) play a key role in limiting the pedestal temperature gradient and the saturation of these QCFs coincides with the pressure gradient reaching the kinetic-ballooning mode critical gradient.
