Abstract
Numerous theoretical and experimental studies have proved the important role of radial electric field inhomogeneity, or shear, in LH-transition initiation, and established heating power threshold for transition, although some experiments provide the observation of LH-transition dependency on particle source. It is necessary to apply a concerted approach to describe LH-transition initiation possibility and dynamics, considering E-r shear, particle source and turbulence properties as the main factors responsible for LH-transition initiation.
