Journal ArticleDOI
Design and operation of the multipulse Thomson scattering diagnostic on DIII‐D (invited)
T. N. Carlstrom,G. L. Campbell,J.C. DeBoo,R.G. Evanko,J. Evans,C. M. Greenfield,J.S. Haskovec,C. L. Hsieh,E. McKee,R. T. Snider,R. E. Stockdale,P. K. Trost,M. P. Thomas +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a 40 spatial channel Thomson scattering system that uses multiple 20-Hz Nd:YAG lasers to measure the electron temperature and density profiles periodically throughout an entire plasma discharge is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beyond paradigm: Turbulence, transport, and the origin of the radial electric field in low to high confinement mode transitions in the DIII-D tokamak
R.A. Moyer,Keith H. Burrell,T. N. Carlstrom,Stefano Coda,Robert W. Conn,E. J. Doyle,P. Gohil,R. J. Groebner,J. Kim,R. Lehmer,W. A. Peebles,Miklos Porkolab,Curtis L. Rettig,T. L. Rhodes,R. P. Seraydarian,R. E. Stockdale,Daniel Thomas,George Tynan,J.G. Watkins +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the predictions of the shear suppression of turbulence as the mechanism for the low to high confinement mode (L to H) transition by quantitative comparison with experimental results from the DIII-D tokamak.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of giant edge-localized modes in DIII-D and comparison with ballooning theory.
P. Gohil,M. Ali Mahdavi,L. L. Lao,Keith H. Burrell,Ming-Sheng Chu,J.C. DeBoo,C. L. Hsieh,N. Ohyabu,R. T. Snider,R. D. Stambaugh,R. E. Stockdale +10 more
TL;DR: For a considerable range of plasma currents, the experimental pressure gradient before a giant ELM is close to the theoretically predicted marginal stability limit for the first regime of the ideal ballooning mode.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the L-mode to H-mode transition in the DIII-D tokamak is associated with the sudden reduction in anomalous, fluctuation-connected transport across the outer midplane of the plasma.

TL;DR: Fusion power has been increased by a factor of 3 in DIII-D by tailoring the pressure profile to avoid the kink instability in H-mode plasmas by controlling the plasma pressure profile width.
