Impact of microwave beam scattering by density fluctuations on the electron–cyclotron power deposition profile in tokamaks

Electron–cyclotron waves are a tool commonly used in tokamaks, in particular to drive current. Their ability to drive current in a very localized manner renders them an optimal tool for MHD mode mitigation. However, such applications require high accuracy and good control of the power deposition loc...
