Samenvatting

Multiple resonances of the edge-localized mode (ELM) frequency caused by the application of low n (=1 or 2) magnetic perturbations for ELM control have been observed on JET. With a low n field applied, a strong increase in ELM frequency, fELM, by a factor of ∼4.5 was found in many separated narrow windows of q95 (resonant q95), while the f ELM increased only by a factor of ∼2 for non-resonant q 95 values. The fractions of increase in fELM with different resonant q95 values are not the same. An analysis of ideal external peeling modes shows that both the dominant unstable peeling mode number and fELM depend on the amplitude of the normalized edge current density as well as the edge safety factor, qa.
