Requirements for alignment of electron cyclotron current drive for neoclassical tearing mode stabilization in ITER

ITER will rely on electron cyclotron stabilization of neoclassical tearing mode islands. The large size and low torque applied in ITER imply slow plasma rotation and susceptibility to island locking by the resistive wall; locking is likely to lead to a loss of the high confinement H-mode, a beta col...
