First-Principles Explanation of the Drift Configuration Dependence of the Radial Electric Field and High-Confinement Access in Tokamaks
B. J. Frei, R. Bilato, O. Grover +6
The origin of the difference in the high-confinement (H-mode) power threshold between favorable and unfavorable drift configurations in tokamaks, experimentally linked to a deeper…
