Fast electrons produced by lower hybrid wave and effects on plasma–wall interactions

Lower hybrid wave (LHW) current drive plays a crucial role in sustaining steady-state (SS) discharges on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST). Hotspots frequently form on the wave antenna and guard limiters during SS operations. Although both experimental and theoretical studies...
