The Low Frequency Edge Oscillation in Alcator C-Mod and ASDEX Upgrade I-Mode

The I-Mode confinement regime in tokamaks is a promising regime for nuclear fusion reactor operation for a number of reasons. It exhibits high energy confinement (similar to H-Mode) and low particle and impurity confinement (similar to L-Mode), which allows it to reach high pressures without unaccep...
