2 OVERVIEW H mode plasmas have been produced by injecting frozen deuterium pellets into L mode plasmas in Pellets injected from the low field, outside edge of the plasma and from the high field, inside plasma edge were both able to produce H mode plasmas The radial extent of pellet deposition is not important. The production of a steep edge density gradient is important The large influx of particles at the plasma edge from the pellet leads to substantial reductions in the edge electron and ion temperatures. The lowered temperatures are still conducive for the formation of the H mode transport barrier A critical edge temperature is not necessary in these H mode transitions Pellet induced H modes have LH transitions at plasma parameters far below theoretical predictions The power threshold for the H mode transition is reduced by about 2.4 MW (about 3%) using pellet injection Pellets produced H mode plasmas at lower input power than reference plasma discharges without pellets, which stayed in L mode throughout beam heating even in the presence of strong sawteeth 81 /PG/wj
3 A key issue for the physics of H mode plasmas is to determine which plasma quantities are critical for the formation of the edge transport barrier One approach is to directly perturb the edge plasma conditions and observe the subsequent changes to key edge parameters at the H mode transition One hypothesis for the H mode transition is that the attainment of a critical edge electron temperature is required for the H mode transition Injection of frozen deuterium pellets: MOTIVATION This can be directly tested using pellet injection Dramatically changes the edge electron density and temperature Can trigger H mode transitions Perturbation to the edge plasma condition by pellet injection provides for quantitative comparisons between experimental conditions and theoretical predictions from H mode transition theories Pellet induced H mode transitions can be accurately preset in time (i.e. the pellet injection time) so that key fluctuation and profile diagnostic systems can be concentrated about that time 81 /jy
4 EXPERIMENTAL SETUP An unbalanced, double-null diverted discharge with the B drift away from the dominant X point was investigated High H mode power threshold Clear, steady-state L mode conditions Pellets were launched from the inside wall, from an upper vertical port and from the outside wall of the vessel Operational parameters Plasma current, I p = 1.6 MA Toroidal magnetic field, B T = T Target electron density, n e = m 3 Auxiliary heating power (NBI) = MW Safety factor: on-axis, q() edge, q 95 = Elongation, κ = Upper triangularity, δ upp =.7.85 Lower triangularity, δ low = /PG/wj

23 SUMMARY H mode plasmas have been directly produced by injecting frozen deuterium pellets into L mode plasmas Pellets injected from the low toroidal field side and high field side were both able to produce H mode transitions The production of a steep edge density gradient is important, and not the radial extent of pellet deposition The edge electron and ion temperatures are substantially reduced by the large influx of particles from the pellet The H mode transition still occurs at the lowered temperatures A critical edge temperature is not necessary in these H mode transitions Pellet induced H modes have LH transitions at plasma parameters far below theoretical predictions Just after pellet injection, the edge fluctuations exhibit fast dithering or bursting behavior before steady H mode conditions are achieved Similarly, fluctuation bursting is observed in transitions to VH mode plasma and plasmas with internal transport barriers 81 /PG/wj
24 SUMMARY (Continued) The shear in the edge Er increases gradually during the period of fluctuation bursts E r measurement is averaged over bursts so cannot determine fast changes in Er Future experiments will have increased time resolution The power threshold is reduced by about 2.4 MW injected power (about 3%) using pellet injection Pellets produced H mode plasmas at lower input power than reference plasma discharges without pellet Reference plasma discharges without pellets stayed in L mode throughout the applied neutral beam heating even in the presence of strong sawteeth and higher NBI power 81 /PG/wj
