TJ-II:Influence of positive and negative density gradients in turbulent transport using the HIBP system: Difference between revisions

Stellarators are well suited to investigate the influence of such positive and negative density gradients on plasmas fluctuations and transport because of its capabilities to control plasma scenarios and magnetic configuration. Recent experiments in TJ-II have shown that density fluctuations appear both at the positive and negative gradient regions in electron root ECRH plasmas, with the minimum amplitude in the zero density gradient regions [<ref>R. Sharma et al., EPS 2018</ref>].

The goal is to systematically investigate the influence of  on-axis / off-axis ECRH heating on fluctuations and turbulent ExB transport in positive and negative density gradient regions.
