Natural poloidal asymmetry and neoclassical transport of impurities in tokamak plasmas
The neoclassical transport of impurities is investigated for a plasma without toroidal rotation nor anisotropic ion temperature. It is shown that a natural poloidal asymmetry of the impurity density exists in this case, and that it can be described with ...

Benchmark of the local drift-kinetic models for neoclassical transport simulation in helical plasmas [PDF]
The benchmarks of the neoclassical transport codes based on the several local drift-kinetic models are reported here. Here, the drift-kinetic models are zero orbit width (ZOW), zero magnetic drift, DKES-like, and global, as classified in Matsuoka et al. [

L-H transition dynamics in fluid turbulence simulations with neoclassical force balance [PDF]
Spontaneous transport barrier generation at the edge of a magnetically confined plasma is investigated. To this end, a model of electrostatic turbulence in three-dimensional geometry is extended to account for the impact of friction between trapped and ...

Neoclassical resonant transport of a mirror cell [PDF]
The neoclassical resonant plateau transport in a mirror cell is studied theoretically. The analytical expression for a non-square-well magnetic field is obtained. The analytical result is applied to the GAMMA10 tandem mirror [T. Cho, M.

Prevention of core particle depletion in stellarators by turbulence
In reactor-relevant plasmas, neoclassical transport drives an outward particle flux in the core of large stellarators and predicts strongly hollow density profiles. However, this theoretical prediction is contradicted by experiments.

Cross-verification of neoclassical transport solutions from XGCa against NEO
Radial neoclassical transport from the global gyrokinetic code XGC has been cross-verified against the local drift-kinetic neoclassical code NEO in NEO's local regime using a Grad-Shafranov equilibrium with a circular boundary.

Neoclassical toroidal plasma viscosity in bounce-transit and drift resonance regimes in tokamaks
Neoclassical toroidal plasma viscosity in the bounce-transit and drift resonance regimes is calculated using a version of the drift kinetic equation that encompasses the physics of the nonlinear trapping and quasilinear plateau regimes in tokamaks. It is

Preliminary Result of Neoclassical Impurity Transport Affected by ICRH with a 4-D Fokker-Planck Code [PDF]
To understand the role of ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) in mitigating tungsten accumulation, we evaluate the impact of ICRH-induced poloidal asymmetries on neoclassical impurity transport using a newly developed 4-D Fokker–Planck code (FP4D ...
