The steep edge gradients (of density and temperature) lead to quasi-periodic violent relaxation phenomena, known as Edge Localized Modes (ELMs), which have a strong impact on the surrounding vessel.

The ELMy H-mode is proposed as the standard operating scenario for [[ITER]].
The ELMy H-mode is proposed as the standard operating scenario for [[ITER]], thus converting ELM mitigation into a priority.
