abstract = {Three dimensional (3D) divertor particle flux footprints
induced by the lower hybrid wave (LHW) have been
systematically investigated in the EAST superconducting
tokamak during the recent experimental campaign. We find
that the striated particle flux (SPF) peaks away from the
strike point (SP) closely fit the pitch of the edge magnetic
field line for different safety factors q 95, as predicted
by a field line tracing code taking into account the helical
current filaments (HCFs) in the scrape-off-layer (SOL). As
LHW power increases, it requires the fuelling to be
increased e.g. by super molecular beam injection (SMBI), to
maintain a similar plasma density, which may be attributed
to the pump-out effect due to LHW, and may thus be
beneficial for EAST steady state operations. The 3D SPF
structure is observed with a LHW power threshold (P LHW ~
0.9 MW). The ratio of the particle fluxes between SPF and
outer strike point (OSP), i.e. ${{\Gamma }_{{\rm ion},{\rm
SPF}}}/{{\Gamma }_{{\rm ion},{\rm OSP}}}$ , increases with
the LHW power. Upon transition to divertor detachment, the
particle flux at the main OSP decreases, as expected,
however, the particle flux at SPF continues increasing, in
contrast to the RMP-induced striations that vanish with
increasing divertor density. In addition, we also find that
the in–out asymmetry of the 3D particle flux footprint
pattern exhibits a clear dependence on the toroidal field
direction (B × ∇
B ↓ and B × ∇ B↑).
Experiments using neon impurity seeding show a promising
capability in 3D particle and heat flux control on EAST.
LHW-induced particle and heat flux striations are also
present in the H-mode plasmas, reducing the peak heat flux
and erosion at the main strike point, thus facilitating
long-pulse operation with a new steady-state H-mode over
60 s being recently achieved in EAST.},
