Is turbulence indeed reduced in the tokamak edge pedestal? Mysteries of PEDESTAL poloidal ASYMMETRIES revealed

FIG. 1: Example of the alignment technique for profiles in an EDA H-mode. In the first column are shown profiles mapped using the EFIT magnetic reconstruction with their calibrated position. The second column shows the profiles when the LFS and HFS Tz profiles are matched. The third column shows the alignment procedure used throughout this paper, the total pressure-alignment, where profiles are shifted until the HFS measured Er matches the expected (Equation 5).
