Experimental observation of coexisting electromagnetic fluctuations correlating with the inter-ELM pedestal evolution on EAST

Correlations between the edge fluctuations and the pedestal evolution during the relatively large edge localized mode (ELM) cycles at high pedestal normalized electron collisionality (νe,ped* > 1) on the EAST tokamak are investigated. Not only the edge electrostatic coherent mode (ECM, ∼50 kHz) and the low frequency magnetic coherent mode (MCM, ∼32 kHz) but also a high frequency electromagnetic mode (HFM, >150 kHz) are observed to...
