Abstract

At density filaments in magnetized plasmas, electromagnetic waves are guided along the filament ("wave-filament bound states"). Several wave-filament bound states exist beyond those predicted by Myra and D'Ippolito [Phys. Plasmas 17, 102510 (2010)]. The new bound states occur under experimentally relevant conditions and are especially common under typical NSTX conditions, where they are a plausible mechanism for the experimentally observed power losses in the edge plasma.
