Effects Of Poloidal Sheared Flow And Active Feedback On Tokamak Edge Fluctuations

The influence of sheared poloidal flow and of a phase sensitive feedback source on the various edge instabilities of tokamaks are investigated. The conditions for stabilization of the rippling mode, for the drift dissipative mode and for the radiative condensation instability are obtained from detailed numerical solutions and from approximate analytic solutions of the relevant eigenmode equations.
