One of the main diagnostic tools for measuring electron density profiles and the characteristics of long wavelength turbulent wave structures in fusion plasmas is beam emission spectroscopy (BES). The increasing number of BES systems necessitated an accurate and comprehensive simulation of BES diagnostics, which in turn motivated the development of the Rate Equations for Neutral Alkali-beam TEc...

Introduction An H-mode is one of the most promising operation scenarios for the future tokamak. Its confinement capability is attractive, but the operation stability needs a complement due to heavy heat loads on the plasma facing material caused by bursts of particle and energy during edge localized modes (ELMs). Many researches are focused on suppressing the ELM and on finding more stable oper...
