Neoclassical Physics for Current Drive in Tokamak Plasmas
The Lie transform formalism is applied to charged particle dynamics in tokamak magnetic topologies, in order to build a Fokker-Planck type operator for Coulomb... -
Turbulent and neoclassical toroidal momentum transport in tokamak plasmas
The goal of magnetic confinement devices such as tokamaks is to produce energy from nuclear fusion reactions in plasmas at low densities and high temperatures.... -
