First Observation of Fishbone-Driven Zonal Flows with Fine Reversed Structure in Tokamak Plasmas
Liutian Gao, Yuehao Ma, Huishan Cai +12
We present the first direct experimental observation of fishbone-driven zonal flows in the core of the EAST tokamak. In contrast to the global pattern predicted by previous models…
Boronization-enabled I-mode on EAST tokamak with an expanded density window and favorable-configuration access
X. M. Zhong, X. L. Zou, A. D. Liu +19
I-mode is a promising confinement regime for future fusion reactors because it combines enhanced energy confinement with L-mode-like particle transport and naturally ELM-free opera…
Characteristics of the edge temperature ring oscillation during stationary improved confnement mode in EAST
A. D. Liu, X. L. Zou, X. M. Zhong +10
I-mode is a natural ELMy-free regime with H-mode like improved energy confnement and L-mode like particle confnement, making it an attractive scenario for future tokamak based fusi…
I-mode investigation on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak
X. Feng, A. D. Liu, C. Zhou +35
By analyzing large quantities of discharges in the unfavorable ion drift direction, the I-mode operation has been confirmed in EAST tokamak. During the L-…
