↓ Important for edge stability in high-β burning plasmas JT-60U/DIII-D have discovered ELM triggering by EP driven mode (EPdM) in wall stabilized high-β plasmas High-β N operation is advantageous to gain higher fusion output density, High-β N region above no-wall limit  ”wall-stabilized high-β region” However, wall-stabilized high-β N region is not fully understood. 24th IAEA FEC 20122/2010/11/2012 DIII-D JT-60U Energetic Particles (EPs) & EP driven modes Energetic Particles (EPs) & EP driven modes MHD modes

What is EP driven Mode (EPdM) to trigger ELM? DIII-D JT-60U NOTE: These modes have been named “Off-axis Fishbone Mode (OFM)” on DIII-D and “Energetic particle driven Wall Mode (EWM)” on JT-60U. Appear at high-β N > no-wall β N -limit, Initial mode frequency ~ Precession frequency of trapped EPs, Toroidally: mainly n=1, Poloidally: m=3~4 (localized at low field side) Radially: q=2), Strong distorted waveform, 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012

EP diagnostics indicate intense EP transport/loss 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012 DIII-D Trapped EPs (V || /V = 0.2~0.3,E=65-70keV) are transported by EPdM Beacon transport/loss like a sprinkler…

Strong correlation between waveform distortion and EP transport EP density near plasma edge increases monotonically with distortion increase DIII-D 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012

Waveform distortion has helical structure existing only at low field side(LFS). Waveform distortion is toroidally localized  Snake behavior EP transport/loss ride on this helical structure 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012 DIII-D

Waveform distortion is composed of higher harmonics Experimentally obtained δB θ (θ, φ) can be reproduced by n=1 & n=2 modes. Unstable n=1, 2, and 3 modes w/o wall, (ideal MHD analysis) Distortion component always rides on maximum amplitude of fundamental component.  non-linear process?

ELM triggering by EPdMs occurs with some level of waveform distortion Some level of waveform distortion seems to be needed, Not always trigger ELM even with significant distortion level  need other conditions satisfied? DIII-D JT-60U 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012

ELM triggering depends on time delay since the previous ELM ELM triggering by EPdMs infrequently occurs after ELM crash,  Pedestal recovery (marginal edge stability) is needed DIII-D 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012

Difference of ELM triggering by EPdMs on DIII-D and JT-60U Partially synchronized 10/11/201224th IAEA FEC /20 DIII-D JT-60U Fully synchronized

ELM pacing occurs when the EPdM repetition frequency is larger than natural ELM frequency Frequent EPdM cycle can pace ELM, Pacing frequency is determined by balance between pedestal recovery and EP transport. 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012 DIII-D f EPdM < f ELM JT-60U f ELM ≤ f EPdM

Peeling-ballooning Transported EPs to edge affect edge stability Transported EPs may act as an additional pressure gradient or change edge stability boundary 10/11/201224th IAEA FEC /20 DIII-D JT-60U & Possibility 1 Possibility 2 (1) Additional  p can violate peeling-ballooning stability,  p ped =  (p th + δp EP ) (2) EP contribution (δW k ) can narrow stable region.

Analytic study says that EPs can destabilize marginal mode Marginal mode can be destabilized by EP contributions. 10/11/201224th IAEA FEC /20 From EPs From bulk plasma w/o wall From bulk plasma with an ideal wall Dispersion relation (with resistive wall) + kinetic contribution: From EPs

Interpretation of ELM triggering by EPdM Trapped EP can drive EPdM, EPdM waveform distortion enhances EP transport to edge, Transported EPs affect edge stability, ELM triggering occurs. 10/11/201224th IAEA FEC /20

Summary ELM triggering by the EPdMs has been discovered on JT-60U and DIII-D, Waveform distortion composed of higher harmonics strongly correlates with EP transport to edge, ELM triggering/pacing by the EPdMs need, (i)some level of waveform distortion and (ii) pedestal recovery, Transported EPs to edge affect edge stability as additional pressure or contribute to change stability. New gate has been opened! New approach to ELM pacing on ITER and DEMO. 24th IAEA FEC /2010/11/2012
