摘要：
By using the recently developed Thomson scattering diagnostic, the pedestal structure of the H-mode with neutral beam injection (NBI) or/and lower hybrid wave (LHW) heating on EAST (Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak) is analyzed in detail. We find that a higher ratio of the power of the NBI to the total power of the NBI and the lower hybrid wave (LHW) will produce a large and regular different edge-localized mode (ELM), and a lower ratio will produce a small and irregular ELM. The experiments show that the mean pedestal width has good correlation with beta(0.5)(p,ped), The pedestal width appears to be wider than that on other similar machines, which could be due to lithium coating. However, it is difficult to draw any conclusion of correlation between rho* and the pedestal width for limited rho* variation and scattered distribution. It is also found that T-e/del T-e is similar to 2 cm, which is the same as the AUG (ASDEX Upgrade), DIII-D and JET (Joint European Torus) results.
