Effects of magnetic drift tangential to magnetic surfaces on neoclassical transport in non-axisymmetric plasmas [PDF]
In evaluating neoclassical transport by radially local simulations, the magnetic drift tangential to a flux surface is usually ignored in order to keep the phase-space volume conservation.

Monte Carlo computations of neoclassical transport [PDF]
Neoclassical transport coefficients and confinement times in stellarators of general geometry and tokamaks with and without ripple are computed by Monte Carlo simulation over wide ranges of mean free paths, ratios of plasma to gyroradius, and radial electric fields.

Locality effects on bifurcation paradigm of L-H transition in tokamak plasmas [PDF]
The locality effects on bifurcation paradigm of L-H transition phenomenon in magnetic confinement plasmas are investigated. One dimensional thermal transport equation with both neoclassical and anomalous transports effects included is considered, where

Lagrangian formulation of neoclassical transport theory [PDF]
Neoclassical transport theory is developed in a Lagrangian formulation in contrast to the usual Eulerian development. The Lagrangian formulation is constructed from the three actions: magnetic moment, parallel invariant, and bounce-averaged poloidal flux.

Transition in particle transport under resonant magnetic perturbations in a tokamak
Nonlinear 3D MHD simulations and validations reveal that the hybrid particle-MHD transport is a key process for driving the pump-out in the presence of Resonant Magnetic Perturbations (RMPs) in the KSTAR tokamak.
