| Title | 138: Pellet induced H-mode at low toroidal rotation | ||
| Name: | Punit Gohil ( |
Affiliation: | General Atomics |
| Research Area: | Transport | Presentation time: | Not requested | Co-Author(s): | L. Baylor, T. Jernigan |
| Description: | Produce pellet induced H-mode plasmas below the nominal threshold power for different sets of plasma conditions with low toroidal rotation. | ||
| Experimental Approach/Plan: | Inject inside and outside launched pellets in to L-mode plasmas at input powers well below the H-mode power threshold for a given set of conditions and at low toroidal rotation. Determine the power threshold with power scans using the pellets and document the plasma edge with edge turbulence diagnostics. | ||
| Background: | The ability to lower the H-mode power threshold using pellets has been proven from previous studies. However, the influence of the edge toroidal rotation has now to be determined for these plasmas and this experiment aims to resolve this issue. | ||
