Experimental demonstration of reactor-relevant adaptive density control on the DIII-D tokamak with coordinated gas and pellet fueling

Precise regulation of plasma density is crucial for achieving and maintaining fusion-relevant conditions in reactor-grade tokamaks. Tokamak reactors will utilize both gas puffing and pellet injection as standard fueling mechanisms. However, the coordinated use of gas puffing and pellet injection within feedback control...
