Title: Edge dynamics in pellet-fuelled inner-wall jet discharges

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6458064

This paper reports on the density behavior in JET during pellet-fuelled inner-wall discharges without auxiliary heating. Certain discharges, characterized by minor disruptions at the q = 2 surface, show a ten times more rapid decay of the plasma density than previously observed. It is shown that this is related to the combined effects of plasma and wall properties.
