Turbulent Transport-Limited Pedestals in Tokamaks
J. F. Parisi, D. R. Hatch, P. Y. Li +5
H-mode operation of tokamak fusion plasmas free of dangerous Type 1 edge-localized-modes (ELMs) requires a non-ELM mechanism for saturating the edge pedestal growth. One possible m…

Prediction of ELM-free Operation in Spherical Tokamaks With High Plasma Squareness
J. F. Parisi, J. W. Berkery, K. Imada +5
We predict that high plasma squareness in spherical tokamaks (STs) could result in edge-localized-mode (ELM)-free H-mode. The effect of squareness on gyrokinetic and peeling-balloo…
