The Legacy of Policy Inaction in Climate‐Growth Models
ABSTRACT To better understand the structure and core mechanisms of a broad class of climate‐growth models, we study a simplified version of the dynamic integrated model of climate and the economy (DICE) through the lens of growth theory. We analytically show that this model features a continuum of saddle‐point stable steady states.

Operation with beam heating is prone to central accumulation of high- Z impurities in present-day tokamaks due to a dominant neoclassical pinch. Fusion reactors are expected to have a different core transport regime for high- Z impurities, where ...
