Abstract
Several points concerning the section ‘‘Comparison with the Swedish stability and transport analysis’’ in the paper by Horton et al. are discussed and clarified. In particular it is pointed out that the Swedish model gives about the right ratio of χe/χi for the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 63, 520 (1989)] density modification experiment.Keywords
