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…

Increasing the density limit with ECRH-assisted Ohmic start-up on EAST
Jiaxing Liu, Ping Zhu, Dominique Franck Escande +16
High plasma density operation is crucial for a tokamak to achieve energy breakeven and a burning plasma. However, there is often an empirical upper limit of electron density in tok…

Suppression of Edge Localized Modes in ITER Baseline Scenario in EAST using Edge Localized Magnetic Perturbations
P. Xie, Y. Sun, M. Jia +31
We report the suppression of Type-I Edge Localized Modes (ELMs) in the EAST tokamak under ITER baseline conditions using Resonant Magnetic Perturbations (RMPs), while maint…
