This paper reviews the effects of resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) on classical tearing
modes (TMs) and neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) from the theory, experimental …

The reversed magnetic shear (RMS) configuration is believed to be one of the most
promising advanced scenarios to achieve steady-state operation in the future large-scale …

Key plasma physics and real-time control elements needed for robustly stable operation of
high fusion power discharges in ITER have been demonstrated in recent research …

Routine reaction to approaching disruptions in tokamaks is currently largely limited to
machine protection by mitigating an ongoing disruption, which remains a basic requirement …

Synergetic effects of resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) and electron cyclotron current
drive (ECCD) on stabilizing neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) in reversed magnetic shear …

We report the first preemptive direct stabilization of $ m, n= 2, 1$ neoclassical tearing modes
(NTMs) in DIII-D low-torque ITER baseline scenario plasmas by electron cyclotron waves …

Locked modes are known to be one of the major causes of disruptions, but the physical
mechanisms by which locking leads to disruptions are not well understood. Here we analyze …

Currents driven by radio frequency (rf) waves in the interior of magnetic islands can stabilize
deleterious tearing modes in tokamaks. Present analyses of stabilization assume that the …

A technique to identify intrinsic error fields (EFs) in tokamaks with minimized risk of
disruption is demonstrated on the DIII-D tokamak. The method extends the conventional …

The control of neo-classical tearing modes (NTMs) by the differential rotation in the reversed
magnetic shear (RMS) configuration with different separations $\Delta {{r} _ {\text {s}}} …
