Observation of ELM structures in MAST and AUG using a fast camera

Edge localised modes (ELMs) are repetitive instabilities that occur in the outer region of tokamak plasmas. In this work, for the first time, we present image sequences of the temporal evolution of the observed filamentary structures during the ELM events.
