Stabilization of electron-scale turbulence by electron density gradient in NSTX

[摘要] Microturbulence is present in all magnetic confinement fusion devices, and is believed to play a major role in driving anomalous transport levels that exceed neoclassical theory predictions. In NSTX, electron thermal transport is found to dominate energy loss. Theory and experiments have shown that electron temperature gradient (ETG) turbulence on the electron gyro-scale, kḻpe
