Edge-localized-modes (ELMs) are a ubiquitous feature of H-mode in tokamaks. When
gradients in the H-mode transport barrier grow to exceed the MHD stability limit the ELM …

Progress in the definition of the requirements for edge localized mode (ELM) control and the
application of ELM control methods both for high fusion performance DT operation and non …

Progress, since the ITER Physics Basis publication (ITER Physics Basis Editors et al 1999
Nucl. Fusion 39 2137–2664), in understanding the processes that will determine the …

The tritium aspects of the DT fuel cycle embody some of the most challenging feasibility and
attractiveness issues in the development of fusion systems. The review and analyses in this …

Large 70Hz Type-I edge localized modes (ELMs) are converted into small 130Hz
oscillations using edge resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) from a coil with currents⩽ …

The understanding and predictive capability of transport physics and plasma confinement is
reviewed from the perspective of achieving reactor-scale burning plasmas in the ITER …

Abstract Analysis of Type I ELMs from ongoing experiments shows that ELM energy losses
are correlated with the density and temperature of the pedestal plasma before the ELM …

This paper presents the results of a preliminary assessment conducted to estimate the
thermal response and erosion lifetime of the ITER divertor targets clad either with carbon …

Operating ITER in the reference inductive scenario at the design values of I p= 15 MA and Q
DT= 10 requires the achievement of good H-mode confinement that relies on the presence …

Abstract The type I ELMy H-mode is the baseline operating scenario for ITER. While it is
known that the type I edge-localized mode (ELM) ultimately results from the peeling …
