Abstract

A steady-state H-mode plasma with frequent ELMs (edge localized modes) was obtained by applying magnetic fields with high poloidal mode numbers resonant in the plasma edge. The induced ELMs limit the density and impurity accumulation normally observed during ELM-free H-mode. An EML coil with numerous resonant modes (m10) in the plasma edge appears the most effective. This method of control is extended to higher auxiliary heating power by increasing the magnitude of the magnetic perturbations.
