Drift waves occur universally in magnetized plasmas producing the dominant mechanism for
the transport of particles, energy and momentum across magnetic field lines. A wealth of …

In this paper, the theory of collisional and turbulent transport of impurities in tokamak
plasmas is reviewed. The results are presented with the aim of providing at the same time a …

Nuclear fusion is one of the most attractive alternatives to carbon-dependent energy
sources. Harnessing energy from nuclear fusion in a large reactor scale, however, still …

Expressions for the neoclassical resistivity and the bootstrap current coefficients in terms of
aspect ratio and collisionality are widely used in simulating toroidal axisymmetric equilibria …

This is a textbook on theoretical plasma physics, which is the science of extremely hot gases
which make up most of the universe and which are used extensively in fusion energy …

The understanding and predictive capability of transport physics and plasma confinement is
reviewed from the perspective of achieving reactor-scale burning plasmas in the ITER …

In JET deuterium-tritium (DT) plasmas, the fusion power is produced through thermonuclear
reactions and reactions between thermal ions and fast particles generated by neutral beam …

JINTRAC is a system of 25 different physics-modules for the integrated modeling of complex
Tokamak [1] scenarios. A Tokamak reactor consists of a toroidally symmetric vacuum-vessel …

Numerical studies of neoclassical transport, beginning with the fundamental drift-kinetic
equation (DKE), have been extended to include the self-consistent coupling of electrons and …
