Internal measurement of magnetic turbulence in ELMy H-mode tokamak plasmas
2020
Magnetic turbulence is directly observed internally in the pedestal of ELMy H-mode tokamak plasmas using a newly developed Faraday-effect polarimetry measurement. Fluctuation amplitude is δ b r ≥ 15 G (150–500 kHz), with a ratio of magnetic to density fluctuation | δ b r / B | / | δ n / n | ≥ 0.15. Magnetic turbulence is identified as resulting from micro-tearing-instability and mode growth accompanied by degraded plasma confinement is observed.
