Stabilization of sawteeth with additional heating in the JET tokamak.

TL;DR: Experiments in the JET tokamak with additional heating power above 5 MW show that the plasma can undergo a transition to a new regime and an improvement in the glogal energy confinement time of up to 20% is observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonlinear stabilization of tokamak microturbulence by fast ions.

TL;DR: Based on nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations investigating a set of ion heat transport experiments on the JET tokamak, described by Mantica et al. as mentioned in this paper, this result explains the experimentally observed ion heat flux and stiffness reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of the JET results in support to ITER

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the 2014-2016 JET results in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation, stressing the importance of the magnetic configurations and the recent measurements of fine-scale structures in the edge radial electric.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental study of the ion critical-gradient length and stiffness level and the impact of rotation in the JET tokamak.

TL;DR: Plasmas with higher values of toroidal rotation show a significant increase in R/LTi, which is found to be mainly due to a decrease of the stiffness level, which has implications on the extrapolation to future machines of present day results on the role of rotation on confinement.
