Recent results in the theory of turbulent momentum transport and the origins of intrinsic
rotation are summarized. Special attention is focused on aspects of momentum transport …

Toroidal momentum transport mechanisms are reviewed and put in a broader perspective.
The generation of a finite momentum flux is closely related to the breaking of symmetry …

A novel mechanism for driving residual stress in tokamak plasmas based on k∥ symmetry
breaking by the turbulence intensity gradient is proposed. The physics of this mechanism is …

The interaction of passing-ion drift orbits with spatially inhomogeneous but purely diffusive
radial transport is demonstrated to cause spontaneous toroidal spin-up in a simple model of …

Toroidal rotation is critical for fusion in tokamaks, since it stabilizes instabilities that can
otherwise cause disruptions or degrade confinement. Unlike present-day devices, ITER …

Starting from a phase space conserving gyrokinetic formulation, a systematic derivation of
parallel momentum conservation uncovers a novel mechanism by which microturbulence …

Beginning from a phase space conserving gyrokinetic formulation, a systematic derivation of
parallel momentum conservation uncovers two physically distinct mechanisms by which …

In a model kinetic ion transport equation for the pedestal and scrape-off layer, passing-ion
drift orbit excursions interact with spatially inhomogeneous but purely diffusive transport to …

In this work, most of the weakly coherent mode (WCM) characteristics and the level of
transport coefficients observed in I-mode pedestal plasmas of C-Mod are reproduced …

The quasilinear intrinsic parallel flow drive including parallel residual stress, kinetic stress,
cross Maxwell stress and parallel turbulent acceleration by electromagnetic ion temperature …
