Observation of Edge Instability Limiting the Pedestal Growth in Tokamak Plasmas

Observation of Edge Instability Limiting the Pedestal Growth in Tokamak Plasmas

With fusion device performance hinging on the edge pedestal pressure, it is imperative to experimentally understand the physical mechanism dictating the pedestal characteristics and to validate and improve pedestal predictive models. This Letter reports direct evidence of density and magnetic fluctu...
