Since it is uncertain if ITER operation is compatible with type-I edge localized modes (ELMs), the study of alternative ELM regimes is an urgent issue. This paper reports on experiments on JET aiming to find scenarios with small ELMs and good confinement, such as the type-II ELMs in ASDEX Upgrade, the enhanced D-alpha H-mode in Alcator C-mod or the grassy ELMs in JT-60U. The study includes shape variations, especially the closeness to a double-null configuration, variations of q95, density and beta poloidal. H-mode pedestals without type-I ELMs have been observed only at the lowest currents (≤1.2 MA), showing similarities to the observations in the devices mentioned above. These are discussed in detail on the basis of edge fluctuation analysis. For higher currents, only the mixed type-I/II scenario is observed. Although the increased inter-ELM transport reduces the type-I ELM frequency, a single type-I ELM is not significantly reduced in size. Obviously, these results do question the accessibility of such small ELM scenarios on ITER, except perhaps the high beta-poloidal scenario at higher q95, which could not be tested at higher currents at JET due to limitations in heating power.

ITER運転がタイプIエッジ局在モード(ELM)と両立可能かどうかは不確実であるため、代替ELM領域の研究は緊急の課題である。本論文は、ASDEX UpgradeにおけるタイプII ELM、Alcator C-modにおける増強D-alpha Hモード、またはJT-60UにおけるグラッシーELMのような、小さなELMと良好な閉じ込めを有するシナリオを見つけることを目的としたJETでの実験について報告する。この研究には、特にダブルヌル配位への近さ、q95、密度、ポロイダルベータの変化を含む形状変化が含まれる。タイプI ELMを伴わないHモードペデスタルは、最低電流(≤1.2 MA)でのみ観察され、上記の装置での観察との類似性を示している。これらは、エッジ変動解析に基づいて詳細に議論される。より高い電流では、混合タイプI/IIシナリオのみが観察される。ELM間輸送の増加によりタイプI ELM周波数は減少するが、単一のタイプI ELMのサイズは有意には減少しない。明らかに、これらの結果は、そのような小さなELMシナリオのITERでの実現可能性に疑問を投げかけるものであり、おそらく高q95での高ポロイダルベータシナリオを除いては、JETでのより高い電流では加熱出力の制限により試験できなかった。
