This overview is an assessment of the gyrokinetic framework and simulations to compute turbulent transport in fusion plasmas. It covers an introduction to the gyrokinetic theory, the …
The stellarator is a type of fusion energy device that—if properly designed—could provide clean, safe, and abundant energy to the grid. To generate this energy, a stellarator must …

The current state of the EUTERPE code is described with emphasis on the implemented models and their numerical implementation. The code solves the multi-species …
Global gyrokinetic simulations of electrostatic microturbulent transport for discharge# 166256 of the Large Helical Device stellarator in the presence of boron impurity show the co …
A novel reduced model for ion temperature gradient (ITG) turbulent transport in helical plasmas is presented. The model enables one to predict nonlinear gyrokinetic simulation …
In this work, the first nonlinear particle-in-cell simulations carried out in a stellarator with the global gyrokinetic code EUTERPE using adiabatic electrons and realistic plasma …
Global gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient (ITG) and trapped electron mode (TEM) in the LHD stellarator are carried out using the gyrokinetic toroidal code (GTC) with …
In this work, we compare gyrokinetic simulations in stellarators using different computational domains, namely, flux tube (FT), full-flux-surface (FFS), and radially global (RG) domains …
Anomalous transport of particles, momentum, and heat is commonly observed in fusion plasma experiments, and has been a central issue in magnetic fusion research for the last …
