Experimental Measurement of ECH Deposition Broadening: Beyond Anomalous Transport

This work provides a first experimental measurement of broadened ECH deposition on the DIIID tokamak. As seen in theory[1] and simulation[2], refraction by edge density fluctuations shifts the path of RF waves, altering ECH and ECCD deposition. This paper reports on an initial experimental confirmat...
