| Title | 320: Control VH-mode density rise by RMP | ||
| Name: | Michael J. Schaffer ( |
Affiliation: | General Atomics |
| Research Area: | General FS | Presentation time: | Not requested | Co-Author(s): | Jackson?, Hyatt? |
| Description: | Apply a non axisymmetric resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) field to a VH-mode plasma in an attempt to enhance cross-separatrix particle transport and limit VH-mode particle accumulation to a tolerable level. | ||
| Experimental Approach/Plan: | -- | ||
| Background: | VH-mode has excellent confinement, but the particle confinement is so good that VH-mode is always terminated by excess density. Resonant magnetic perturbations (RMP) enhance particle transport across the separatrix. Therefore, RMP might limit the VH-mode particle accumulation to a tolerable level. | ||
