The Peeling-Ballooning Model is a description of MHD stability in the edge region of tokamaks. It predicts operational regimes where pedestal pressure and bootstrap current lead to peeling unstable or ballooning unstable modes | The Peeling-Ballooning Model is a description of MHD stability in the edge region of tokamaks.
