title = "High frequency ELM pacing by pellet injection on DIII-D and implications for ITER",
abstract = "The low field side injected pellets in DIII-D have been found to greatly reduce the ELM intensity and simultaneously greatly reduces impurity accumulation when applied at rates in excess of 10x the natural ELM rate. The pedestal height and width are reduced by the pellet ELM pacing while not appreciably affecting plasma confinement, all of which are promising for ITER. The triggering of the ELMs takes place well before the pellet reaches the top of the pedestal, implying that even smaller pellets can be utilized. Future studies with smaller pellets will elucidate just how far inside the separatrix the pellets need to penetrate. Further optimization and extension to even higher frequency smaller pellet ELM pacing is needed to fully explore and extrapolate this ELM mitigation technique to ITER.",
