The deteriorating effect of plasma density fluctuations on microwave beam quality

The deteriorating effect of plasma density fluctuations on microwave beam quality

Turbulent plasma edge density fluctuations can broaden a traversing microwave beam degrading its quality. This can be a problem for scenarios relying on a high spatial localization of the deposition of injected microwave power, like controlling MHD instabilities. Here we present numerical estimations...
