Super H-mode is a regime of tokamak operation wherein the pedestal height (and therefore fusion performance) is substantially higher than in standard H-mode operation. It was predicted using the EPED model for the pedestal height and then experimentally confirmed on the DIII-D tokamak,[1] followed by reproduction on Alcator C-Mod.[2]
