Abstract
The edge turbulence characteristics and the induced radial transport have been investigated in edge localized mode (ELM) suppression by using the $n = $ 4 resonant magnetic perturbation coils on EAST, with ${q_{95}} = $ 3.6 and the electron collisionality $\nu _{\text{e}}^* \approx $ 0.5. During ELM suppression, the edge turbulence is enhanced dramatically, as measured by the reciprocating probe and the poloidal correlation reflectometry. In the near SOL, the low frequency turbulence (250 kHz), which could be beneficial to form the observed turbulent transport. The estimated upstream cross-field particle flux is consistent with the total particle flux deposited on divertor targets, demonstrating that the enhanced radial turbulent particle transport is an important mechanism for particle exhaust in ELM suppression.
