The edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) region of a tokamak plasma is considered, with
emphasis on sheared flow generation and the dynamics of blob-filaments. Both numerical …

It is well known that electron emission can restructure the thin sheaths at plasma-facing
surfaces. But conventional models assume that the plasma's structure negligibly changes …

Progress in basic understanding of turbulence and its influence on the transport both of the
plasma bulk and of suprathermal components is achieved in the TORPEX simple …

Perpendicular currents and self-consistent electric fields in fully and partially ionized plasma
in strong magnetic field are analyzed. In fully ionized plasma, the analyses are concentrated …

Data from the XGC1 gyrokinetic simulation are analyzed to understand the three-
dimensional spatial structure and the radial propagation of blob-filaments generated by …

Measurements of divertor currents on DIII-D lead to new insights in nonlinear edge-localized
mode (ELM) dynamics and a possible mechanism to explain their explosive growth. Rapidly …

It is observed in EAST that the non-axisymmetric helical currents induced by lower hybrid
waves (LHWs) in the scrape-off layer (SOL) can produce resonant magnetic perturbations …

It has been demonstrated in J-TEXT experiments that a biased electrode or electrode
biasing (EB) in the scrape-off layer (SOL) can drive SOL helical current filaments (HCFs) …

Convective cells for turbulence control, generated by means of biased electrodes, are
investigated in the simple magnetized toroidal plasmas of TORPEX. A two-dimensional …

The ratio of electron and ion saturation currents measured by probes embedded in the
plasma-facing components (PFCs) in magnetised plasmas is typically lower than predicted …
