abstract = {Recent progress in the gyrokinetic theory of stellarator microinstabilities$\backslash$nand turbulence simulations is summarized. The simulations have been$\backslash$ncarried out using two different gyrokinetic codes, the global particle-in-cell$\backslash$ncode EUTERPE and the continuum code GENE, which operates in the geometry$\backslash$nof a flux tube or a flux surface but is local in the radial direction.$\backslash$nIon-temperature-gradient (ITG) and trapped-electron modes are studied$\backslash$nand compared with their counterparts in axisymmetric tokamak geometry.$\backslash$nSeveral interesting differences emerge. Because of the more complicated$\backslash$nstructure of the magnetic field, the fluctuations are much less evenly$\backslash$ndistributed over each flux surface in stellarators than in tokamaks.$\backslash$nInstead of covering the entire outboard side of the torus, ITG turbulence$\backslash$nis localized to narrow bands along the magnetic field in regions$\backslash$nof unfavourable curvature, and the resulting transport depends on$\backslash$nthe normalized gyroradius rho* even in radially local simulations.$\backslash$nTrapped-electron modes can be significantly more stable than in typical$\backslash$ntokamaks, because of the spatial separation of regions with trapped$\backslash$nparticles from those with bad magnetic curvature. Preliminary non-linear$\backslash$nsimulations in flux-tube geometry suggest differences in the turbulence$\backslash$nlevels in Wendelstein 7-X and a typical tokamak.},

abstract = {Self-consistent equations for intrinsic rotation in tokamaks with small poloidal magnetic field {\$}B{\_}p{\$} compared to the total magnetic field {\$}B{\$} are derived. The model gives the momentum redistribution due to turbulence, collisional transport and energy injection. Intrinsic rotation is determined by the balance between the momentum redistribution and the turbulent diffusion and convection. Two different turbulence regimes are considered: turbulence with characteristic perpendicular lengths of the order of the ion gyroradius, {\$}\backslashrho{\_}i{\$}, and turbulence with characteristic lengths of the order of the poloidal gyroradius, {\$}(B/B{\_}p) \backslashrho{\_}i{\$}. Intrinsic rotation driven by gyroradius scale turbulence is mainly due to the effect of neoclassical corrections and of finite orbit widths on turbulent momentum transport, whereas for the intrinsic rotation driven by poloidal gyroradius scale turbulence, the slow variation of turbulence characteristics in the radial and poloidal directions and the turbulent particle acceleration can be become as important as the neoclassical and finite orbit width effects. The magnetic drift is shown to be indispensable for the intrinsic rotation driven by the slow variation of turbulence characteristics and the turbulent particle acceleration. The equations are written in a form easily implementable in a flux tube code, and the effect of the radial variation of the turbulence is included without having to resort to a global gyrokinetic formalism.},

abstract = {A direct implicit ion polarization gyrokinetic full f particle-in-cell approach is implemented with kinetic electrons in global tokamak transport simulations. The method is applicable for calculations of rapid transients and steep gradients in the plasma, which is made feasible by recording the charge density change by the ion polarization drift together with the particle advancing. The code has been successfully validated against the linear and nonlinear predictions of the unstable mode growth rates and frequencies and their turbulent saturation level. A first global validation of the neoclassical radial electric field in the presence of turbulence for a heated collisional tokamak plasma is obtained. The neoclassical radial electric field together with the related geodesic acoustic mode oscillations is found to regulate the turbulence and heat and particle diffusion levels in a large aspect ratio tokamak at low plasma current},

One limit of this equation gives the familiar Grad-Shafranov equation which describes the equilibrium of axisymmetric fusion plasmas. Another limit gives the equation describing general nonmagnetic flows of matter with angular momentum. A further limit gives the "pulsar equation" of Scharlemann, Wagoner, and Michel for relativistic plasma flows around an aligned, rotating, magnetized neutron star.

@article{Tatsuno2009,
abstract = {Electrostatic turbulence in weakly collisional, magnetized plasma can be interpreted as a cascade of entropy in phase space, which is proposed as a universal mechanism for dissipation of energy in magnetized plasma turbulence. When the nonlinear decorrelation time at the scale of the thermal Larmor radius is shorter than the collision time, a broad spectrum of fluctuations at sub-Larmor scales is numerically found in velocity and position space, with theoretically predicted scalings. The results are important because they identify what is probably a universal Kolmogorov-like regime for kinetic turbulence; and because any physical process that produces fluctuations of the gyrophase-independent part of the distribution function may, via the entropy cascade, result in turbulent heating at a rate that increases with the fluctuation amplitude, but is independent of the collision frequency.},

@article{Federspiel2014,
abstract = {This thesis focuses on measurements of toroidal rotation and impurity profiles in im- proved plasma scenarios and in the presence of MHD activity. These experiments were performed on TCV, the Tokamak {\`{a}} Configuration Variable in Lausanne. In TCV, plasma rotation is measured by the charge exchange recombination spec- troscopy diagnostic (CXRS). The CXRS is associated with a low power diagnostic neutral beam injector (DNBI) that provides CX emission from the hot plasma core, without perturbing the plasma with additional torque. The beam is observed transver- sally by the CXRS diagnostic so that local ion temperature, density and intrinsic ve- locity measurements are obtained. During this work, a pre-existing CXRS diagnostic was improved and automated. The three systems composing the present day CXRS2013 diagnostic cover the entire TCV radial midplane with up to 80 measurement locations separated by around 7mm with a time resolution ranging from 2-30ms. The main upgrades concerned the installation of new sensitive cameras, the overhaul of the toroidal HFS system, the extended-chord configuration and the automation of the acquisition and analysis processes. These new CXRS capabilities permitted the investigation of more complex scenarios featuring low intensity and/or fast events, like the low density electron internal transport barriers (eITBs) and the sawtooth (ST) instability discussed in this work. For the first time, a comparison between rotation profiles measured over several saw- tooth events and across a “canonical” sawtooth cycle has been undertaken in limited L-mode plasmas in this thesis, in order to identify the effect of the various ST phases on the rotation profile, and thus momentum transport. It is shown that the main ST effect on momentum is not simply a rotation profile flattening, as might be con- jectured from their effect on electron temperature and density (consistent with a ST reconnection model), but results appear more complicated. The averaged rotation profiles obtained with the upgraded CXRS diagnostic show that ST restrict the max- imum attainable |vϕ,max| and that, in the plasma core, inside the q=1 surface, the rotation profiles are flattened and almost always display a small co-current contribu- tion. It is this effect that results in the 1/Ip scaling observed in TCV limited L-mode plasmas. The co-current core contribution is identified to be related to the ST crash, whilst, during the quiescent ramp of the sawtooth period, a plasma recoil outside the mixing radius is observed. A high degree of momentum conservation, up to 80-90{\%}, is measured, suggesting that a supplementary torque accompanying the ST crash is not required to explain the experimental observations. This study demonstrates the importance of including fast perturbating effects such as MHD modes in momentum transport models to build a complete picture, since they are likely to generate strong and rapid fluxes inside the plasma. Extensive work on transport barriers has been performed to better understand the formation and characteristics of eITBs on TCV, using, for the first time, toroidal and poloidal rotation measurements. During this work, the poloidal rotation, Er and the E × B shearing rate have been derived systematically from the asymmetry of the toroidal rotation measurements at the HFS and LFS. Since the position of the CXRS diagnostic view is at Z=0cm, two scenarios, a central barrier and a strong off-axis eITB, similar to previous targets investigated at Z=21cm, were developed to facilitate CXRS analysis during this thesis. The effect on the barrier strength and on the rota- tion profiles of several parameters, such as the central and total power, Ohmic current perturbations and MHD activity is investigated for both targets. The barrier strength increases with cnt-CD applied on axis, higher total power and negative Ohmic per- turbations. Indeed, for the strong co-CD off-axis eITB, a barrier in Te at 7keV and ne with a 23cm barrier width, confinement factor HRLW = 5.4 and |R/LTe| = 45 was achieved. No special dependence is found between the experimental |$\omega$? E×B| ∝ 104s−1 and the confinement factor HRLW or the maximum |R/LTe|, confirming that on TCV, the barrier improvement is not linked to higher |$\omega$? E×B| values. The experimental E×B shearing rates were compared with the growth rate of the most unstable mode for these discharges (TEM) obtained with the GENE code. The growth rate is found always one order of magnitude larger than the measured E × B shearing rates, confirming that the E×B shearing rate is not the cause of the formation of eITBs on TCV. This result supports previous theoretical studies concluding that the reversed shear profile is mainly responsible for the eITB formation. The comparison between the experimental ion temperature profiles and the results obtained with a quasi-linear model applied to TCV eITBs has shown some discrepancies. The |R/LTi|/|R/LTe| ratios measured at the barrier position are much lower than expected from the model, and no ion barrier is observed in these discharges. The installation of a new NB heating in 2015 will allow direct heating of the ion channel and may elucidate these discrepancies.},

abstract = {Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is encountered in a wide variety of astrophysical plasmas, including accretion disks, the solar wind, and the interstellar and intracluster medium. On small scales, this turbulence is often expected to consist of highly anisotropic fluctuations with frequencies small compared to the ion cyclotron frequency. For a number of applications, the small scales are also collisionless, so a kinetic treatment of the turbulence is necessary. We show that this anisotropic turbulence is well described by a low-frequency expansion of the kinetic theory called gyrokinetics. This paper is the first in a series to examine turbulent astrophysical plasmas in the gyrokinetic limit. We derive and explain the nonlinear gyrokinetic equations and explore the linear properties of gyrokinetics as a prelude to nonlinear simulations. The linear dispersion relation for gyrokinetics is obtained, and its solutions are compared to those of hot-plasma kinetic theory. These results are used to validate the performance of the gyrokinetic simulation code GS2 in the parameter regimes relevant for astrophysical plasmas. New results on global energy conservation in gyrokinetics are also derived. We briefly outline several of the problems to be addressed by future nonlinear simulations, including particle heating by turbulence in hot accretion flows and in the solar wind, the magnetic and electric field power spectra in the solar wind, and the origin of small-scale density fluctuations in the interstellar medium.},

@article{Hornsby2018,
abstract = {Non-linear, radially global, turbulence simulations of ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) plasmas are performed and the nonlinear generated intrinsic flow shows agreement with the intrinsic flow gradients measured in the core of Ohmic L-mode plasmas at nominal parameters. Simulations utilising the kinetic electron model show hollow intrinsic flow profiles as seen in a predominant number of experiments performed at similar plasma parameters. In addition, significantly larger flow gradients are seen than in a previous flux-tube analysis (Hornsby et al Nucl. Fusion (2017)). Adiabatic electron model simulations can show a flow profile with opposing sign in the gradient with respect to a kinetic electron simulation, implying a reversal in the sign of the residual stress due to kinetic electrons. The shaping of the intrinsic flow is strongly determined by the density gradient profile. The sensitivity of the residual stress to variations in density profile curvature is calculated and seen to be significantly stronger than to neoclassical flows (Hornsby et al Nucl. Fusion (2017)). This variation is strong enough on its own to explain the large variations in the intrinsic flow gradients seen in some AUG experiments. Analysis of the symmetry breaking properties of the turbulence shows that profile shearing is the dominant mechanism in producing a finite parallel wave-number, with turbulence gradient effects contributing a smaller portion of the parallel wave-vector.},

We also show that according to our orderings the long wavelength toroidal rotation and the long wavelength radial electric field satisfy the neoclassical relation that gives the toroidal rotation as a function of the radial electric field and the radial gradients of pressure and temperature. Thus, the radial electric field can be solved for once the toroidal rotation is calculated from the transport of toroidal angular momentum. Unfortunately, even though this methodology only requires a gyrokinetic model correct to second order in gyroradius over scale length, current gyrokinetic simulations are only valid to first order. To overcome this difficulty, we exploit the smallish ratio B(p)/B, where B is the total magnetic field and B(p) is its poloidal component. When B(p)/B is small, the usual first order gyrokinetic equation provides solutions that are accurate enough to employ for our expression for the transport of toroidal angular momentum. We show that current delta f and full f simulations only need small corrections to achieve this accuracy. Full f simulations, however, are still unable to determine the long wavelength, radial electric field from the quasineutrality equation.},

The convergence of steady temperature and rotation profiles is examined, and it is shown that the profile relaxation can be significantly accelerated when the simulation is initialized with linearly unstable temperature profiles. In the steady state, the temperature profile and the ion heat diffusivity are self-consistently determined by the power balance condition, while the intrinsic rotation profile is sustained by complicated momentum transport processes without momentum input. The steady turbulent momentum transport is characterized by bursty non-diffusive fluxes, and the resulting turbulent residual stress is consistent with the profile shear stress theory [Y.

A key aspect of this work is the development of a fast numerical algorithm for treatment of the field particle operator. This Eulerian algorithm can accurately treat the disparate velocity scales that arise in the case of multi-species plasmas. Specifically, a Legendre series expansion in $\xi$ (the cosine of the pitch angle) is combined with a novel Laguerre spectral method in energy to ameliorate the rapid numerical precision loss that occurs for traditional Laguerre spectral methods. We demonstrate the superiority of this approach to alternative spectral and finite-element schemes. The physical accuracy and limitations of more commonly used model collision operators, such as the Connor and Hirshman–Sigmar operators, are studied, and the effects on neoclassical impurity poloidal flows and neoclassical transport for experimental parameters are explored.

@article{Burrell1997,
abstract = {One of the scientific success stories of fusion research over the past decade is the development of the E×B shear stabilization model to explain the formation of transport barriers in magnetic confinement devices. This model was originally developed to explain the transport barrier formed at the plasma edge in tokamaks after the L (low) to H (high) transition. This concept has the universality needed to explain the edge transport barriers seen in limiter and divertor tokamaks, stellarators, and mirror machines. More recently, this model has been applied to explain the further confinement improvement from H (high) mode to VH (very high) mode seen in some tokamaks, where the edge transport barrier becomes wider. Most recently, this paradigm has been applied to the core transport barriers formed in plasmas with negative or low magnetic shear in the plasma core. These examples of confinement improvement are of considerable physical interest; it is not often that a system self-organizes to a higher energy state with reduced turbulence and transport when an additional source of free energy is applied to it. The transport decrease that is associated with E×B velocity shear effects also has significant practical consequences for fusion research. The fundamental physics involved in transport reduction is the effect of E×B shear on the growth, radial extent, and phase correlation of turbulent eddies in the plasma. The same fundamental transport reduction process can be operational in various portions of the plasma because there are a number of ways to change the radial electric field Er. An important theme in this area is the synergistic effect of E×B velocity shear and magnetic shear. Although the E×B velocity shear appears to have an effect on broader classes of microturbulence, magnetic shear can mitigate some potentially harmful effects of E×B velocity shear and facilitate turbulence stabilization. Considerable experimental work has been done to test this picture of E×B velocity shear effects on turbulence; the experimental results are generally consistent with the basic theoretical models. {\textcopyright} 1997 American Institute of Physics.},

The Poynting flux is concentrated at the core radius. The rest frame magnetic field in the core is essentially parallel to the axis, and toroidal in the envelope.

abstract = {An H-mode edge pedestal plasma transport benchmarking exercise was undertaken for a single DIII-D pedestal. Transport modelling codes used include 1.5D interpretive (ONETWO, GTEDGE), 1.5D predictive (ASTRA) and 2D ones (SOLPS, UEDGE). The particular DIII-D discharge considered is 98889, which has a typical low density pedestal. Profiles for the edge plasma are obtained from Thomson and charge-exchange recombination data averaged over the last 20{\%} of the average 33.53 ms repetition time between type I edge localized modes. The modelled density of recycled neutrals is largest in the divertor X-point region and causes the edge plasma source rate to vary by a factor {\~{}}102 on the separatrix. Modelled poloidal variations in the densities and temperatures on flux surfaces are small on all flux surfaces up to within about 2.6 mm ($\rho$N {\textgreater} 0.99) of the mid-plane separatrix. For the assumed Fick's-diffusion-type laws, the radial heat and density fluxes vary poloidally by factors of 2–3 in the pedestal region; they are largest on the outboard mid-plane where flux surfaces are compressed and local radial gradients are largest. Convective heat flows are found to be small fractions of the electron (10{\%}) and ion (25{\%}) heat flows in this pedestal. Appropriately averaging the transport fluxes yields interpretive 1.5D effective diffusivities that are smallest near the mid-point of the pedestal. Their 'transport barrier' minima are about 0.3 (electron heat), 0.15 (ion heat) and 0.035 (density) m2 s−1. Electron heat transport is found to be best characterized by electron-temperature-gradient-induced transport at the pedestal top and paleoclassical transport throughout the pedestal. The effective ion heat diffusivity in the pedestal has a different profile from the neoclassical prediction and may be smaller than it. The very small effective density diffusivity may be the result of an inward pinch flow nearly balancing a diffusive outward radial density flux. The inward ion pinch velocity and density diffusion coefficient are determined by a new interpretive analysis technique that uses information from the force balance (momentum conservation) equations; the paleoclassical transport model provides a plausible explanation of these new results. Finally, the measurements and additional modelling needed to facilitate better pedestal plasma transport modelling are discussed.},

Finite gyroradius effects in both field-particle and test-particle terms are evaluated. When implemented in gyrokinetic simulations, these effects can be precomputed. The field-particle operator at each time step requires the evaluation of a single two-dimensional integral, and is not only more accurate, but appears to be less expensive to evaluate than conserving model operators.},

Gyrokinetic simulations of TEM-driven turbulence in three-dimensional magnetic configuration of helical plasmas with hydrogen isotope ions and real-mass kinetic electrons are realized for the first time, and the linear and the nonlinear nature of the isotope and collisional effects on the turbulent transport and zonal-flow generation are clarified. It is newly found that combined effects of the collisional TEM stabilization by the isotope ions and the associated increase in the impacts of the steady zonal flows at the near-marginal linear stability lead to the significant transport reduction with the opposite ion mass dependence in comparison to the conventional gyro-Bohm scaling. The universal nature of the isotope effects on the TEM-driven turbulence and zonal flows is verified for a wide variety of toroidal plasmas, e.g., axisymmetric tokamak and non-axisymmetric helical or stellarator systems.},

Balance equations for the turbulententropy density, the energy of electromagneticfluctuations, the turbulenttransport fluxes of particle and heat, and the collisional dissipation are derived from the gyrokineticequation including the collision term and Maxwell equations. It is shown that, in the steady turbulence, the entropy produced by the turbulenttransport fluxes is dissipated in part by collisions in the nonzonal-mode region and in part by those in the zonal-mode region after the nonlinear entropy transfer from nonzonal to zonal modes.},

The linear properties of these instabilities are compared with MTMs deeper inside the$\backslash$r core, and further detailed investigations in s ? ? geometry expose the basic drive mechanism, which$\backslash$r is not well described by existing theories. In particular, the growth rate of the dominant edge MTM$\backslash$r does not peak at a finite collision frequency, as frequently reported for MTMs further into the$\backslash$r core.

abstract = {A direct implicit ion polarization gyrokinetic full f particle-in-cell approach is implemented with kinetic electrons in global tokamak transport simulations. The method is applicable for calculations of rapid transients and steep gradients in the plasma, which is made feasible by recording the charge density change by the ion polarization drift together with the particle advancing. The code has been successfully validated against the linear and nonlinear predictions of the unstable mode growth rates and frequencies and their turbulent saturation level. A first global validation of the neoclassical radial electric field in the presence of turbulence for a heated collisional tokamak plasma is obtained. The neoclassical radial electric field together with the related geodesic acoustic mode oscillations is found to regulate the turbulence and heat and particle diffusion levels in a large aspect ratio tokamak at low plasma current},

abstract = {Plasma microinstabilities, which can be described in the framework of the linear gyrokinetic equations, are routinely computed in the context of stability analyses and transport predictions for magnetic confinement fusion experiments. The GENE code, which solves the gyrokinetic equations, has been coupled to the SLEPc package for an efficient iterative, matrix-free, and parallel computation of rightmost eigenvalues. This setup is presented, including the preconditioner which is necessary for the newly implemented Jacobi–Davidson solver. The fast computation of instabilities at a single parameter set is exploited to make parameter scans viable, that is to compute the solution at many points in the parameter space. Several issues related to parameter scans are discussed, such as an efficient parallelization over parameter sets and subspace recycling.},

abstract = {A new analytically and numerically manageable model collision operator is developed specifically for turbulence simulations. The like-particle collision operator includes both pitch-angle scattering and energy diffusion and satisfies the physical constraints required for collision operators: it conserves particles, momentum and energy, obeys Boltzmann's H-theorem (collisions cannot decrease entropy), vanishes on a Maxwellian, and efficiently dissipates small-scale structure in the velocity space. The process of transforming this collision operator into the gyroaveraged form for use in gyrokinetic simulations is detailed. The gyroaveraged model operator is shown to have more suitable behavior at small scales in phase space than previously suggested models. A model operator for electron-ion collisions is also presented.},

abstract = {This paper presents a complete theoretical framework for studying turbulence and transport in rapidly rotating tokamak plasmas. The fundamental scale separations present in plasma turbulence are codified as an asymptotic expansion in the ratio $\epsilon$ = $\rho$i/$\alpha$ of the gyroradius to the equilibrium scale length. Proceeding order by order in this expansion, a set of coupled multiscale equations is developed. They describe an instantaneous equilibrium, the fluctuations driven by gradients in the equilibrium quantities, and the transport-timescale evolution of mean profiles of these quantities driven by the interplay between the equilibrium and the fluctuations. The equilibrium distribution functions are local Maxwellians with each flux surface rotating toroidally as a rigid body. The magnetic equilibrium is obtained from the generalized Grad-Shafranov equation for a rotating plasma, determining the magnetic flux function from the mean pressure and velocity profiles of the plasma. The slow (resistive-timescale) evolution of the magnetic field is given by an evolution equation for the safety factor q. Large-scale deviations of the distribution function from a Maxwellian are given by neoclassical theory. The fluctuations are determined by the 'high-flow' gyrokinetic equation, from which we derive the governing principle for gyrokinetic turbulence in tokamaks: the conservation and local (in space) cascade of the free energy of the fluctuations (i.e. there is no turbulence spreading). Transport equations for the evolution of the mean density, temperature and flow velocity profiles are derived. These transport equations show how the neoclassical and fluctuating corrections to the equilibrium Maxwellian act back upon the mean profiles through fluxes and heating. The energy and entropy conservation laws for the mean profiles are derived from the transport equations. Total energy, thermal, kinetic and magnetic, is conserved and there is no net turbulent heating. Entropy is produced by the action of fluxes flattening gradients, Ohmic heating and the equilibration of interspecies temperature differences. This equilibration is found to include both turbulent and collisional contributions. Finally, this framework is condensed, in the low-Mach-number limit, to a more concise set of equations suitable for numerical implementation.},

The neoclassical fluxes are due to collisions between the background plasma and impurity ions as well as to collisions between the various ionization states. The evaluation of the neoclassical fluxes takes into account the different collisionality regimes of the background plasma and the impurity ions. A limiter scrape-off model is used to define the boundary condition for the impurity ions in the plasma periphery. To account for the spectroscopic measurements of power radiated by the lower ionization states, fluxes due to anomalous transport are included. The sensitivities of the results to uncertainties in rate coefficients and plasma parameters in the periphery are investigated. The implications of the transport model for spectroscopic evaluation of impurity concentrations, impurity fluxes, and radiated power from line emission measurements are discussed.},

@article{Schekochihin2009,
abstract = {We present a theoretical framework for plasma turbulence in astrophysical plasmas (solar wind, interstellar medium, galaxy clusters, accretion disks). The key assumptions are that the turbulence is anisotropic with respect to the mean magnetic field and frequencies are low compared to the ion cyclotron frequency. The energy injected at the outer scale scale has to be converted into heat, which ultimately cannot be done without collisions. A KINETIC CASCADE develops that brings the energy to collisional scales both in space and velocity. Its nature depends on the physics of plasma fluctuations. In each of the physically distinct scale ranges, the kinetic problem is systematically reduced to a more tractable set of equations. In the "inertial range" above the ion gyroscale, the kinetic cascade splits into a cascade of Alfvenic fluctuations, which are governed by the RMHD equations at both the collisional and collisionless scales, and a passive cascade of compressive fluctuations, which obey a linear kinetic equation along the moving field lines associated with the Alfvenic component. In the "dissipation range" between the ion and electron gyroscales, there are again two cascades: the kinetic-Alfven-wave (KAW) cascade governed by two fluid-like Electron RMHD equations and a passive phase-space cascade of ion entropy fluctuations. The latter cascade brings the energy of the inertial-range fluctuations that was damped by collisionless wave-particle interaction at the ion gyroscale to collisional scales in the phase space and leads to ion heating. The KAW energy is similarly damped at the electron gyroscale and converted into electron heat. Kolmogorov-style scaling relations are derived for these cascades. Astrophysical and space-physical applications are discussed in detail.},

For confined particles, the net radial drift has to be zero, whereby the drift orbit average I-r= of the gyro center radial Clebsch coordinate is constant. To lowest order in the banana width, the radial invariant is the gyro center radial coordinate r(0)(x,v), and to this order the gyro center moves on a magnetic flux surface. The gyro center orbit projected on the (r,z) plane determines the radial invariant and first order banana width corrections to I-r are calculated. The radial drift invariant exists for trapped as well as passing particles. The new invariant is applied to construct Vlasov equilibria, where the magnetic field satisfies a generalized Grad-Shafranov equation with a poloidal plasma current and a bridge to ideal magnetohydrodynamic equilibria is found. For equilibria with sufficiently small banana widths and radial drift excursions, the approximation I-r approximate to r(0)(x,v) can be used for the equilibrium state.

abstract = {The development of a quasi-linear gyrokinetic transport model for tokamak plasmas, ultimately designed to provide physically comprehensive predictions of the time evolution of the thermodynamic relevant quantities, is a task that requires tight links among theoretical, experimental and numerical studies. The framework of the model here proposed, which operates a reduction of complexity on the nonlinear self-organizing plasma dynamics, allows in fact multiple validations of the current understanding of the tokamak micro-turbulence. The main outcomes of this work stem from the fundamental steps involved by the formulation of such a reduced transport model, namely: (1) the verification of the quasi-linear plasma response against the nonlinearly computed solution, (2) the improvement of the turbulent saturation model through an accurate validation of the nonlinear codes against the turbulence measurements, (3) the integration of the quasi-linear model within an integrated transport solver.},

Predicted dependences of turbulence fluctuation amplitudes, spatial scales, and resulting heat fluxes on temperature gradient and magnetic field line pitch are found to agree with numerical results in both the driving and inertial ranges. Evidence is provided to support the critical balance conjecture that parallel streaming and nonlinear perpendicular decorrelation times are comparable at all spatial scales, leading to a scaling relationship between parallel and perpendicular spatial scales. This indicates that even strongly magnetized plasma turbulence is intrinsically three dimensional.},

The like-particle collision operator includes both pitch-angle scattering and energy diffusion and satisfies the physical constraints required for collision operators: it conserves particles, momentum and energy, obeys Boltzmann's H-theorem (collisions cannot decrease entropy), vanishes on a Maxwellian, and efficiently dissipates small-scale structure in the velocity space. The process of transforming this collision operator into the gyroaveraged form for use in gyrokinetic simulations is detailed. The gyroaveraged model operator is shown to have more suitable behavior at small scales in phase space than previously suggested models.

abstract = {Self-consistent equations for intrinsic rotation in tokamaks with small poloidal magnetic field {\$}B{\_}p{\$} compared to the total magnetic field {\$}B{\$} are derived. The model gives the momentum redistribution due to turbulence, collisional transport and energy injection. Intrinsic rotation is determined by the balance between the momentum redistribution and the turbulent diffusion and convection. Two different turbulence regimes are considered: turbulence with characteristic perpendicular lengths of the order of the ion gyroradius, {\$}\backslashrho{\_}i{\$}, and turbulence with characteristic lengths of the order of the poloidal gyroradius, {\$}(B/B{\_}p) \backslashrho{\_}i{\$}. Intrinsic rotation driven by gyroradius scale turbulence is mainly due to the effect of neoclassical corrections and of finite orbit widths on turbulent momentum transport, whereas for the intrinsic rotation driven by poloidal gyroradius scale turbulence, the slow variation of turbulence characteristics in the radial and poloidal directions and the turbulent particle acceleration can be become as important as the neoclassical and finite orbit width effects. The magnetic drift is shown to be indispensable for the intrinsic rotation driven by the slow variation of turbulence characteristics and the turbulent particle acceleration. The equations are written in a form easily implementable in a flux tube code, and the effect of the radial variation of the turbulence is included without having to resort to a global gyrokinetic formalism.},

abstract = {We derive a self-consistent equation for the turbulent transport of toroidal angular momentum in tokamaks in the low flow ordering that only requires solving gyrokinetic Fokker-Planck and quasineutrality equations correct to second order in an expansion on the gyroradius over scale length. We also show that according to our orderings the long wavelength toroidal rotation and the long wavelength radial electric field satisfy the neoclassical relation that gives the toroidal rotation as a function of the radial electric field and the radial gradients of pressure and temperature. Thus, the radial electric field can be solved for once the toroidal rotation is calculated from the transport of toroidal angular momentum. Unfortunately, even though this methodology only requires a gyrokinetic model correct to second order in gyroradius over scale length, current gyrokinetic simulations are only valid to first order. To overcome this difficulty, we exploit the smallish ratio B(p)/B, where B is the total magnetic field and B(p) is its poloidal component. When B(p)/B is small, the usual first order gyrokinetic equation provides solutions that are accurate enough to employ for our expression for the transport of toroidal angular momentum. We show that current delta f and full f simulations only need small corrections to achieve this accuracy. Full f simulations, however, are still unable to determine the long wavelength, radial electric field from the quasineutrality equation.},

To this end we have developed a fast numerical solver for the Grad-Shafranov equation, which allows exploitation of the parallel capabilities of modern multicore processors. Our implementation, termed CPEC (Garching parallel equilibrium code), is based entirely on open-source software components. For a numerical grid of size 3264, our new code requires only 0.04ms (0.11ms for 64128) for a single call of the Grad-Shafranov solver using a standard Intel Xeon quad-core CPU (3.2GHz). We also show the first GPEC benchmark results obtained on the Intel Sandy Bridge eight-core server processor and demonstrate the relevance of the new solver for application in plasma equilibrium codes.},

The convergence of steady temperature and rotation profiles is examined, and it is shown that the profile relaxation can be significantly accelerated when the simulation is initialized with linearly unstable temperature profiles. In the steady state, the temperature profile and the ion heat diffusivity are self-consistently determined by the power balance condition, while the intrinsic rotation profile is sustained by complicated momentum transport processes without momentum input. The steady turbulent momentum transport is characterized by bursty non-diffusive fluxes, and the resulting turbulent residual stress is consistent with the profile shear stress theory [Y.

abstract = {Recently, the electrostatic gyrokinetic Hamiltonian and change of coordinates have been computed to order {\"{I}}µ 2 in general magnetic geometry. Here {\"{I}}µ is the gyrokinetic expansion parameter, the gyroradius over the macroscopic scale length. Starting from these results, the long-wavelength limit of the gyrokinetic Fokker{\^{a}}€“Planck and quasineutrality equations is taken for tokamak geometry. Employing the set of equations derived in the present paper, it is possible to calculate the long-wavelength components of the distribution functions and of the poloidal electric field to order {\"{I}}µ 2 . These higher order pieces contain both neoclassical and turbulent contributions, and constitute one of the necessary ingredients (the other is given by the short-wavelength components up to second order) that will eventually enter a complete model for the radial transport of toroidal angular momentum in a tokamak in the low flow ordering. Finally, we provide an explicit and detailed proof that the system consisting of second-order gyrokinetic Fokker{\^{a}}€“Planck and quasineutrality equations leaves the long-wavelength radial electric field undetermined; that is, the turbulent tokamak is intrinsically ambipolar.},

Nonlinear simulations without sources are carried out with particular attention to considering the same initial conditions, showing identical linear phase and first nonlinear burst. Very good agreement is also achieved between simulations obtained using a Krook-type heat source, which enables to reach a quasisteady state and thus to compare the heat diffusivity traces over a statistically meaningful time interval.

Comparisons between trace and self-consistent turbulent impurity transport are performed for ITER-like profiles.

abstract = {We present a new recursive procedure to find a full f electrostatic gyrokinetic equation correct to first order in an expansion of gyroradius over magnetic field characteristic length. The procedure provides new insights into the limitations of the gyrokinetic quasineutrality equation. We find that the ion distribution function must be known at least to second order in gyroradius over characteristic length to calculate the long wavelength components of the electrostatic potential self-consistently. Moreover, using the example of a steady-state $\theta$-pinch, we prove that the quasineutrality equation fails to provide the axisymmetric piece of the potential even with a distribution function correct to second order. We also show that second order accuracy is enough if a more convenient moment equation is used instead of the quasineutrality equation. These results indicate that the gyrokinetic quasineutrality equation is not the most effective procedure to find the electrostatic potential if the long wavelength components are to be retained in the analysis.},

abstract = {A new hybrid kinetic electron model is developed for electrostatic full-f gyrokinetic simulations of the ion temperature gradient driven trapped electron mode (ITG-TEM) turbulence at the ion scale. In the model, a full kinetic electron model is applied to the full-f gyrokinetic equation, the multi-species linear Fokker-Planck collision operator, and an axisymmetric part of the gyrokinetic Poisson equation, while in a non-axisymmetric part of the gyrokinetic Poisson equation, turbulent fluctuations are determined only by kinetic trapped electrons responses. By using this approach, the so-called $\omega$Hmode is avoided with keeping important physics such as the ITG-TEM, the neoclassical transport, the ambipolar condition, and particle trapping and detrapping processes. The model enables full-f gyrokinetic simulations of ITG-TEM turbulence with a reasonable computational cost. Comparisons between flux driven ITG turbulence simulations with kinetic and adiabatic electrons are presented. Although the similar ion temperature gradients with nonlinear upshift from linear critical gradients are sustained in quasi-steady states, parallel flows and radial electric fields are qualitatively different with kinetic electrons.},

The Tokamak is currently the principal experimental device for research into the magnetic confinement approach to controlled fusion. In the Tokamak, hydrogen plasmas, at temperatures of up to 100 Million K, are confined by strong magnetic fields. Accurate control of the position and shape of the plasma boundary requires real-time feedback control of the magnetic field structure on a time-scale of a few tens of microseconds. Software simulations have demonstrated that a neural network approach can give significantly better performance than the linear technique currently used on most Tokamak experiments. The practical application of the neural network approach requires high-speed hardware, for which a fully parallel implementation of the multi-layer perceptron, using a hybrid of digital and analogue technology, has been developed.},

abstract = {The dissipation of turbulence in the weakly collisional solar wind plasma is governed by unknown kinetic mechanisms. Two candidates have been suggested to play an important role in the dissipation, collisionless damping via wave-particle interactions and dissipation in small-scale current sheets. High resolution spacecraft measurements of the turbulent magnetic energy spectrum provide important constraints on the dissipation mechanism. The limitations of popular fluid and hybrid numerical schemes for simulation of the dissipation of solar wind turbulence are discussed, and instead a three-dimensional kinetic approach is recommended. We present a three-dimensional nonlinear gyrokinetic simulation of solar wind turbulence at electron scales that quantitatively reproduces the exponential form of the turbulent magnetic energy spectrum measured in the solar wind. A weakened cascade model that accounts for nonlocal interactions and collisionless Landau damping also quantitatively agrees with the observed exponential form. These results establish that a turbulent cascade of kinetic Alfv{\'{e}}n waves that is terminated by collisionless Landau damping is sufficient to explain the observed magnetic energy spectrum in the dissipation range of solar wind turbulence.},

For the case of two spatial and one velocity dimension, in the calculation with discretization also of velocity {\$}v{\$} with {\$}N{\$} grid points (where {\$}N+1{\$} quantities are conserved, corresponding to an energy invariant and {\$}N{\$} entropy-related invariants), the negative temperature states, corresponding to the condensation of the generalized energy into the lowest modes, are found.

There is a universal shape for statistical equilibrium of gyrokinetics in three spatial and two velocity dimensions with just one conserved quantity.

Intrinsic rotation driven by gyroradius scale turbulence is mainly due to the effect of neoclassical corrections and of finite orbit widths on turbulent momentum transport, whereas for the intrinsic rotation driven by poloidal gyroradius scale turbulence, the slow variation of turbulence characteristics in the radial and poloidal directions and the turbulent particle acceleration can be become as important as the neoclassical and finite orbit width effects. The magnetic drift is shown to be indispensable for the intrinsic rotation driven by the slow variation of turbulence characteristics and the turbulent particle acceleration. The equations are written in a form easily implementable in a flux tube code, and the effect of the radial variation of the turbulence is included without having to resort to a global gyrokinetic formalism.},

abstract = {Ohmic energy confinement saturation is found to be closely related to core toroidal rotation reversals in Alcator C-Mod tokamakplasmas. Rotation reversals occur at a critical density, depending on the plasma current and toroidalmagnetic field, which coincides with the density separating the linear Ohmic confinement regime from the saturated Ohmic confinement regime. The rotation is directed co-current at low density and abruptly changes direction to counter-current when the energy confinement saturates as the density is increased. Since there is a bifurcation in the direction of the rotation at this critical density, toroidal rotation reversal is a very sensitive indicator in the determination of the regime change. The reversal and confinement saturation results can be unified, since these processes occur in a particular range of the collisionality.},

We find that the ion distribution function must be known at least to second order in gyroradius over characteristic length to calculate the long wavelength components of the electrostatic potential self-consistently. Moreover, using the example of a steady-state $\theta$-pinch, we prove that the quasineutrality equation fails to provide the axisymmetric piece of the potential even with a distribution function correct to second order. We also show that second order accuracy is enough if a more convenient moment equation is used instead of the quasineutrality equation. These results indicate that the gyrokinetic quasineutrality equation is not the most effective procedure to find the electrostatic potential if the long wavelength components are to be retained in the analysis.},

In such plasmas, small scales can develop in the distribution of particle velocities, potentially affecting observable quantities such as turbulent fluxes. Consequently, it is necessary to monitor velocity space resolution in gyrokinetic simulations. In this paper, we present a set of computationally efficient diagnostics for measuring velocity space resolution in gyrokinetic simulations and apply them to a range of plasma physics phenomena using the continuum gyrokinetic code GS2. For the cases considered here, it is found that the use of a collisionality at or below experimental values allows for the resolution of plasma dynamics with relatively few velocity space grid points. Additionally, we describe the implementation of an adaptive collision frequency, which can be used to improve velocity space resolution in the collisionless regime, where results are expected to be independent of collision frequency.},

It is emphasized that conversion of turbulent energy into thermodynamic heat is only achievable in the presence of some (however small) degree of collisionality. The smallness of the collision rate is compensated for by the emergence of a small-scale structure in the velocity space. For gyrokinetic turbulence, a nonlinear perpendicular phase-mixing mechanism is identified and described as a turbulent cascade of entropyfluctuations simultaneously occurring at spatial scales smaller than the ion gyroscale and in velocity space. Scaling relations for the resulting fluctuation spectra are derived. An estimate for the collisional cutoff is provided. The importance of adequately modelling and resolving collisions in gyrokinetic simulations is briefly discussed, as well as the relevance of these results to understanding the dissipation-range turbulence in the solar wind and the electrostatic microturbulence in fusion plasmas.},

It is found that for electric fields below roughly one third of the resonant value, the different formulations give nearly identical results, demonstrating the incompressible E × B-drift approximation is quite accurate in this regime. However, near the electric field resonance, the models yield substantially different results. We also compare results for various collision operators, including the full linearized Fokker-Planck operator.

We highlight the Wendelstein 7X (W7-X) device. Simple fluid and kinetic models that follow closely from existing literature are reviewed and two new first-principle models are presented and compared with results from direct numerical simulation. One model investigates the effect of regions of strong localized shear, which are generic to stellarator equilibria. These “shear spikes” are found to have a potentially significant stabilizing affect on the mode; however, the effect is strongest at short wavelengths perpendicular to the magnetic field, and it is found to be significant only for the fastest growing modes in W7-X. A second model investigates the long-wavelength limit for the case of negligible global magnetic shear. The analytic calculation reveals that the effect of the curvature drive enters at second order in the drift frequency, confirming conventional wisdom that the ITG mode is slab-like at long wavelengths. Using flux tube simulations of a zero-shear W7-X configuration, we observe a close relationship to an axisymmetric configuration at a similar parameter point. It is concluded that scale lengths of the equilibrium gradients constitute a good parameter space to characterize the ITG mode. Thus, to optimize the magnetic geometry for ITG mode stability, it may be fruitful to focus on local parameters, such as the magnitude of bad curvature, connection length, and local shear at locations of bad curvature (where the ITG mode amplitude peaks).},

abstract = {We present results on the geometry of a magnetic cloud (MC) on 23 May 2007 from a comprehensive analysis of Wind and STEREO observations. We first apply a Grad - Shafranov reconstruction to the STEREO-A plasma and magnetic field data, delivered by the PLASTIC and IMPACT instruments. We then optimize the resulting field map with the aid of observations by Wind, which were made at the very outer boundary of the cloud, at a spacecraft angular separation of 6. For the correct choice of reconstruction parameters such as axis orientation, interval and grid size, we find both a very good match between the predicted magnetic field at the position of Wind and the actual observations as well as consistent timing. We argue that the reconstruction captures almost the full extent of the cross-section of the cloud. The resulting shape transverse to the invariant axis consists of distorted ellipses and is slightly flattened in the direction of motion. The MC axis is inclined at 58 to the ecliptic with an axial field strength of 12 nT. We derive integrated axial fluxes and currents with increased precision, which we contrast with the results from linear force-free fitting. The helical geometry of the MC with almost constant twist (1.5 turns AU1) is not consistent with the linear force-free Lundquist model. We also find that the cloud is non-force-free J J {\textgreater}0.3) in about a quarter of the cloud cross sectional area, particularly in the back part which is interacting with the trailing high speed stream. Based on the optimized reconstruction we put forward preliminary guidelines for the improved use of single-spacecraft Grad - Shafranov reconstruction. The results also give us the opportunity to compare the CME direction inferred from STEREO/SECCHI observations by Mierla et al. Solar Phys. 252, 385, {\textless}CitationRef with the three-dimensional configuration of the MC at 1 AU. This yields an almost radial CME propagation from the Sun to the Earth.},

abstract = {The transport of heat that results from turbulence is a major factor limiting the temperature gradient, and thus the performance, of fusion devices. We use nonlinear simulations to show that a toroidal equilibrium scale sheared flow can completely suppress the turbulence across a wide range of flow gradient and temperature gradient values. We demonstrate the existence of a bifurcation across this range whereby the plasma may transition from a low flow gradient and tem- perature gradient state to a higher flow gradient and temperature gradient state. We show further that the maximum temperature gradient that can be reached by such a transition is limited by the existence, at high flow gradient, of subcritical turbulence driven by the parallel velocity gradient (PVG). We use linear simulations and analytic calculations to examine the properties of the transiently growing modes which give rise to this subcritical turbulence, and conclude that there may be a critical value of the ratio of the PVG to the suppressing perpendicular gradient of the velocity (in a tokamak this ratio is equal to q/ǫ where q is the magnetic safety factor and ǫ the inverse aspect ra- tio) below which the PVG is unable to drive subcritical turbulence. In light of this, we use nonlinear simulations to calculate, as a function of three parameters (the perpendicular flow shear, q/ǫ and the tempera- ture gradient), the surface within that parameter space which divides the regions where turbulence can and cannot be sustained: the zero- turbulence manifold. We are unable to conclude that there is in fact a critical value of q/ǫ below which PVG-driven turbulence is eliminated. Nevertheless, we demonstrate that at low values of q/ǫ, the maximum critical temperature gradient that can be reached without generating turbulence (and thus, we infer, the maximum temperature gradient that could be reached in the transport bifurcation) is dramatically in- creased. Thus, we anticipate that a fusion device for which, across a significant portion of the minor radius, the magnetic shear is low, the ratio q/ǫ is low and the toroidal flow shear is strong, will achieve high levels of energy confinement and thus high performance.},

abstract = {A new mechanism has recently been proposed that generates a radial flux of parallel momentum in toroidal plasmas. Namely, by considering up-down asymmetric flux surfaces, the symmetry following the magnetic field can be broken and an additional contribution to the turbulent momentum flux arises, potentially changing the intrinsic rotation profile. These predictions are tested with specific experiments on TCV. The intrinsic toroidal rotation is observed to change by roughly a factor of two when changing the up-down asymmetry of the plasma. More precisely, the toroidal rotation gradient changes in the outer part of the plasma, where the flux surface asymmetry is the highest. The experiments were performed for all combinations of the toroidal magnetic field and plasma current directions, that affect the sign of the predicted up-down asymmetry flux. In each case the variation of the intrinsic rotation profile with the up-down asymmetry is observed in the direction predicted by the theory.},

abstract = {In the absence of any auxiliary torque input, the DIII-D plasma consists of nonzero toroidal angular momentum, in other words, it rotates. This effect is commonly observed in tokamaks, being referred to as intrinsic rotation. Measurements of intrinsic rotation profiles have been made in DIII-D [J. Luxon, Nucl. Fusion 42, 614 (2002)] H-mode discharges, with both Ohmic heating (OH) and electron cyclotron heating (ECH) in which there is no auxiliary torque. Recently, the H-mode data set has been extended with the newly configured DIII-D simultaneous co- and counter-directed neutral beam injection (NBI) capability resulting in control of the local torque deposition, where co and counter refer to the direction relative to the toroidal plasma current. Understanding intrinsic rotation is important for projection toward burning plasma performance where any NBI torque will be relatively small. The toroidal velocity is recognizably important regarding issues of stability and confinement. In DIII-D ECH H-modes the rotation profile is hollow, co-directed at large minor radius and depressed, or actually counter-directed, nearer the magnetic axis. This profile varies with the ECH power deposition profile to some extent. In contrast, OH H-modes have a relatively flat co-directed rotation profile. There is a scaling of the DIII-D intrinsic toroidal velocity with W/I-p, as seen in intrinsic rotation in Alcator C-Mod [J. Rice, Nucl. Fusion 39, 1175 (1999)], where W is the total plasma thermal energy and I-p is the magnitude of the toroidal plasma current. This common scaling resulted in a dimensionless similarity experiment between DIII-D and Alcator C-Mod on intrinsic rotation, obtaining a single spatial point match in the toroidal velocity normalized to the ion thermal velocity. The balanced NBI capability in DIII-D is a useful tool to push scaling studies to higher values of the plasma normalized energy, notwithstanding the details of torque deposition for co-NBI versus counter-NBI. There are theories which address intrinsic rotation, both extensions of neoclassical theory and related to turbulent transport. At this time, the comparisons with theory are qualitative.

abstract = {This chapter discusses the structure of proteins molecule. The “living conditions”, structure-stabilizing interactions and overall architecture of proteins provide the basis for classifying proteins as (1) fibrous proteins, (2) membrane proteins and (3) water-soluble globular proteins. The function of fibrous proteins is mostly structural. They form microfilaments and microtubules, as well as fibrils, hair, silk and other shielding textures; they reinforce membranes and maintain the structure of cells and tissues. Fibrous proteins are often very large. Fibrous proteins often form enormous aggregates; their spatial structure is mostly highly regular, which iscomposed of huge secondary-structure blocks, and reinforced by interactions among adjacent polypeptide chains. The primary structure of fibrous proteins is also characterized by high regularity and periodicity, which ensures the formation of vast regular secondary structures. Some typical representatives of fibrous proteins are $\beta$-structural proteins like silk fibroin, $\alpha$-structural fibrous proteins, and collagen. The chapter explains how the helices associate. Fibrous proteins are often structurally simple owing to the periodicity of their primary structure and secondary structure as well.},

abstract = {Understanding the origin of rotation in ion cyclotron resonance frequency (ICRF) heated plasmas is important for predictions for burning plasmas sustained by alpha particles, being characterized by a large population of fast ions and no external momentum input. The angular velocity of the plasma column has been measured in JET H-mode plasmas with pure ICRF heating both for the standard low toroidal magnetic ripple configuration, of about ∼0.08{\%} and, for increased ripple values up to 1.5{\%} (Nave et al 2010 Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.105005] 105005 ). These new JET rotation data were compared with the multi-machine scaling of Rice et al (2007 Nucl. Fusion 47 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0029-5515/47/11/025] 1618 ) for the Alfv{\'{e}}n–Mach number and with the scaling for the velocity change from L-mode into H-mode. The JET data do not fit well any of these scalings that were derived for plasmas that are co-rotating with respect to the plasma current. With the standard low ripple configuration, JET plasmas with large ICRF heating power and normalized beta, $\beta$ N ≈ 1.3, have a very small co-current rotation, with Alfv{\'{e}}n–Mach numbers significantly below those given by the rotation scaling of Rice et al (2007 Nucl. Fusion 47 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0029-5515/47/11/025] 1618 ). In some cases the plasmas are actually counter-rotating. No significant difference between the H-mode and L-mode rotation is observed. Typically the H-mode velocities near the edge are lower than those in L-modes. With ripple values larger than the standard JET value, between 1{\%} and 1.5{\%}, H-mode plasmas were obtained where both the edge and the core counter-rotated.},

abstract = {This paper presents a complete theoretical framework for plasma turbulence and transport in tokamak plasmas. The fundamental scale separations present in plasma turbulence are codified as an asymptotic expansion in the ratio of the gyroradius to the equilibrium scale length. Proceeding order-by-order in this expansion, a framework for plasma turbulence is developed. It comprises an instantaneous equilibrium, the fluctuations driven by gradients in the equilibrium quantities, and the transport-timescale evolution of mean profiles of these quantities driven by the fluctuations. The equilibrium distribution functions are local Maxwellians with each flux surface rotating toroidally as a rigid body. The magnetic equillibrium is obtained from the Grad-Shafranov equation for a rotating plasma and the slow (resistive) evolution of the magnetic field is given by an evolution equation for the safety factor q. Large-scale deviations of the distribution function from a Maxwellian are given by neoclassical theory. The fluctuations are determined by the high-flow gyrokinetic equation, from which we derive the governing principle for gyrokinetic turbulence in tokamaks: the conservation and local cascade of free energy. Transport equations for the evolution of the mean density, temperature and flow velocity profiles are derived. These transport equations show how the neoclassical corrections and the fluctuations act back upon the mean profiles through fluxes and heating. The energy and entropy conservation laws for the mean profiles are derived. Total energy is conserved and there is no net turbulent heating. Entropy is produced by the action of fluxes flattening gradients, Ohmic heating, and the equilibration of mean temperatures. Finally, this framework is condensed, in the low-Mach-number limit, to a concise set of equations suitable for numerical implementation.},

We find that large plasmas with a small normalized gyroradius lie in an unexpected regime of enhanced losses that can prevent the projected energy gain.

abstract = {One of the central physics issues currently targeted by nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations is the role of finite-$\beta$ effects. The latter change the MHD equilibrium, introduce new dynamical space and time scales, alter and enlarge the zoo of electrostatic microinstabilities and saturation mechanisms, and lead to turbulent transport along fluctuating magnetic field lines. It is shown that the electromagnetic effects on primarily electrostatic microinstabilities are generally weakly or moderately stabilizing. However, the saturation of these modes and hence the determination of the transport level in the quasi-stationary turbulent state can be dominated by nonlinear electromagnetic effects and yield surprising results. Despite this, the induced transport is generally electrostatic in nature well below the ideal ballooning limit.},

@article{Sorbom2015,
abstract = {The affordable, robust, compact (ARC) reactor is the product of a conceptual design study aimed at reducing the size, cost, and complexity of a combined fusion nuclear science facility (FNSF) and demonstration fusion Pilot power plant. ARC is a ∼200-250 MWe tokamak reactor with a major radius of 3.3 m, a minor radius of 1.1 m, and an on-axis magnetic field of 9.2 T. ARC has rare earth barium copper oxide (REBCO) superconducting toroidal field coils, which have joints to enable disassembly. This allows the vacuum vessel to be replaced quickly, mitigating first wall survivability concerns, and permits a single device to test many vacuum vessel designs and divertor materials. The design point has a plasma fusion gain of Q{\textless}inf{\textgreater}p{\textless}/inf{\textgreater} ≈ 13.6, yet is fully non-inductive, with a modest bootstrap fraction of only ∼63{\%}. Thus ARC offers a high power gain with relatively large external control of the current profile. This highly attractive combination is enabled by the ∼23 T peak field on coil achievable with newly available REBCO superconductor technology. External current drive is provided by two innovative inboard RF launchers using 25 MW of lower hybrid and 13.6 MW of ion cyclotron fast wave power. The resulting efficient current drive provides a robust, steady state core plasma far from disruptive limits. ARC uses an all-liquid blanket, consisting of low pressure, slowly flowing fluorine lithium beryllium (FLiBe) molten salt. The liquid blanket is low-risk technology and provides effective neutron moderation and shielding, excellent heat removal, and a tritium breeding ratio ≥ 1.1. The large temperature range over which FLiBe is liquid permits an output blanket temperature of 900 K, single phase fluid cooling, and a high efficiency helium Brayton cycle, which allows for net electricity generation when operating ARC as a Pilot power plant.},

Comparisons are made between the simple-but-standard electron Lorentz operator and specific variations of the advanced Sugama operator. The Sugama operator describes multi-species collisions including energy diffusion, momentum and energy conservation terms, and is valid for arbitrary wavelength. We report scans over collision frequency for both low and high ks modes, with relevance for multiscale simulations that couple ion and electron scale physics. The influence of the ionion collision terms-not retained in the electron Lorentz model-on the damping of zonal flows is also explored. Collision frequency scans for linear and nonlinear simulations of ion-temperature-gradient instabilities including impurity ions are presented. Finally, implications for modeling turbulence in the highly collisional edge are discussed.},

abstract = {Microinstabilities exhibit a rich variety of behavior in stellarators due to the many degrees of freedom in the magnetic geometry. It has recently been found that certain stellarators (quasi-isodynamic ones with maximum-J geometry) are partly resilient to trapped-particle instabilities, because fast-bouncing particles tend to extract energy from these modes near marginal stability. In reality, stellarators are never perfectly quasi-isodynamic, and the question thus arises whether they still benefit from enhanced stability. Here, the stability properties of Wendelstein 7-X and a more quasi-isodynamic configuration, QIPC, are investigated numerically and compared with the National Compact Stellarator Experiment and the DIII-D tokamak. In gyrokinetic simulations, performed with the gyrokinetic code GENE in the electrostatic and collisionless approximation, ion-temperature-gradient modes, trapped-electron modes, and mixed-type instabilities are studied. Wendelstein 7-X and QIPC exhibit significantly reduced growth rates for all simulations that include kinetic electrons, and the latter are indeed found to be stabilizing in the energy budget. These results suggest that imperfectly optimized stellarators can retain most of the stabilizing properties predicted for perfect maximum-J configurations. {\textcopyright} 2013 Euratom.},

abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015 American Physical Society.Multiscale gyrokinetic turbulence simulations with the real ion-to-electron mass ratio and $\beta$ value are realized for the first time, where the $\beta$ value is given by the ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic pressure and characterizes electromagnetic effects on microinstabilities. Numerical analysis at both the electron scale and the ion scale is used to reveal the mechanism of their cross-scale interactions. Even with the real-mass scale separation, ion-scale turbulence eliminates electron-scale streamers and dominates heat transport, not only of ions but also of electrons. Suppression of electron-scale turbulence by ion-scale eddies, rather than by long-wavelength zonal flows, is also demonstrated by means of direct measurement of nonlinear mode-to-mode coupling. When the ion-scale modes are stabilized by finite-$\beta$ effects, the contribution of the electron-scale dynamics to the turbulent transport becomes non-negligible and turns out to enhance ion-scale turbulent transport. Damping of the ion-scale zonal flows by electron-scale turbulence is responsible for the enhancement of ion-scale transport.},

To this aim, two massively parallel, fully gyrokinetic Vlasov codes are used, both including electromagnetic effects. Somewhat surprisingly, and unlike in the analogous case of ion-temperature-gradient-driven (ITG) turbulence, we find that the turbulent electron heat flux is significantly underpredicted by simple mixing length estimates in a certain parameter regime (ŝ{\~{}}1, low $\alpha$). This observation is directly linked to the presence of radially highly elongated vortices (``streamers'') which lead to very effective cross-field transport. The simulations therefore indicate that ETG turbulence is likely to be relevant to magnetic confinement fusion experiments.},

abstract = {Carbon ion velocity profiles are measured in TCV with a charge exchange diagnostic using a negligibly perturbing diagnostic neutral beam. These 'intrinsic' rotation profiles are measured up to the plasma edge in the toroidal and poloidal directions for both limited and diverted plasma configurations in Ohmic plasmas and in the presence of strong second harmonic electron cyclotron heating (ECH). Absolute toroidal velocities are shown to scale with peak ion temperature and inversely with plasma current. The plasma edge rotation is always small in limited configurations but evolves smoothly with the core density for diverted configurations. A strong intrinsic rotation builds up in the plasma core in the counter-current direction for limited configurations but is observed in the co-current direction for diverted plasmas. Unexpectedly, above a given density threshold, the rotation profile reverses to the co-current direction for limited configurations (and surprisingly, in the counter-current direction for diverted configurations). This threshold density is found to depend on plasma current, the presence of ECH and the magnetic topology. Poloidal velocity measurements are used to deduce the radial electric field change across the transition. A strong dependence of the rotation profile on plasma triangularity is reported and possible physics models for these observations are discussed. The origin of the momentum drive, its reversal and its magnitude are not yet clearly understood even for these relatively 'simple' experimental configurations. },

The gyrokinetic equations$\backslash$ndescribe the dynamics of particles in 5-dimensional phase space, averaging$\backslash$nover the fast gyromotion, and provide a foundation for studying plasma microturbulence$\backslash$nin fusion devices and in astrophysical plasmas. Several algorithms for Eulerian/$\backslash$ncontinuum gyrokinetic solvers are compared. An iterative implicit scheme$\backslash$nbased on numerical approximations of the plasma response is developed. This$\backslash$nmethod reduces the long time needed to set-up implicit arrays, yet still has larger$\backslash$ntime step advantages similar to a fully implicit method. Various model preconditioners$\backslash$nand iteration schemes, including Krylov-based solvers, are explored. An$\backslash$nAlternating Direction Implicit algorithm is also studied and is surprisingly found$\backslash$nto yield a severe stability restriction on the time step. Overall, an iterative Krylov$\backslash$nalgorithm might be the best approach for extensions of core tokamak gyrokinetic$\backslash$nsimulations to edge kinetic formulations and may be particularly useful for studies$\backslash$nof large-scale ExB shear eects.$\backslash$nThe eects of $\backslash$nux surface shape on the gyrokinetic stability and transport of$\backslash$ntokamak plasmas are studied using the nonlinear GS2 gyrokinetic code with analytic$\backslash$nequilibria based on interpolations of representative JET-like shapes. High$\backslash$nshaping is found to be a stabilizing in$\backslash$nuence on both the linear ITG instability and$\backslash$nnonlinear ITG turbulence. A scaling of the heat $\backslash$nux with elongation of   1:5$\backslash$nor 2 (depending on the triangularity) is observed, which is consistent with previous$\backslash$ngyro$\backslash$nuid simulations. Thus, the GS2 turbulence simulations are explaining a$\backslash$nsignicant fraction, but not all, of the empirical elongation scaling. The remainder$\backslash$nof the scaling may come from (1) the edge boundary conditions for core turbulence,$\backslash$nand (2) the larger Dimits nonlinear critical temperature gradient shift due$\backslash$nto the enhancement of zonal $\backslash$nows with shaping, which is observed with the GS2$\backslash$nsimulations.$\backslash$nFinally, a local linear trial function-based gyrokinetic code is developed to aid$\backslash$nin fast scoping studies of gyrokinetic linear stability. This code is successfully$\backslash$nbenchmarked with the full GS2 code in the collisionless, electrostatic limit, as well$\backslash$nas in the more general electromagnetic description with higher-order Hermite basis$\backslash$nfunctions.},

These 'intrinsic' rotation profiles are measured up to the plasma edge in the toroidal and poloidal directions for both limited and diverted plasma configurations in Ohmic plasmas and in the presence of strong second harmonic electron cyclotron heating (ECH). Absolute toroidal velocities are shown to scale with peak ion temperature and inversely with plasma current. The plasma edge rotation is always small in limited configurations but evolves smoothly with the core density for diverted configurations. A strong intrinsic rotation builds up in the plasma core in the counter-current direction for limited configurations but is observed in the co-current direction for diverted plasmas.

For typical tokamak values, a relative error of 10(-7) in the ion or electron densities is enough to obtain the incorrect toroidal rotation. Based on the insights gained with the examples considered, three simple tests to check transport of toroidal angular momentum in full f simulations are proposed.

The selected data bear relevance to the all-important spontaneous confinement transitions often observed in fusion plasmas, fundamental for the design of an economically attractive fusion reactor.

These comparisons provide information on effects of differences in the physics content of the various models and on the fusion-relevant figures of merit of plasma performance predicted by the models. Many of the comparisons are undertaken for a simplified plasma model and geometry which is an idealization of the plasma conditions and geometry in a Doublet III-D [Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research, 1986 (International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, 1987), Vol. 1, p. 159] high confinement (H-mode) experiment. Most of the models show good agreements in their predictions and assumptions for the linear growth rates and frequencies. There are some differences associated with different equilibria. However, there are significant differences in the transport levels between the models. The causes of some of the differences are examined in some detail, with particular attention to numerical convergence in the turbulence simulations (with respect to simulation mesh size, system size and, for particle-based simulations, the particle number).

abstract = {This thesis details findings related to the effects of magnetic field fluctuations on the properties of microturbulent transport in fusion plasmas. To this end, direct numerical analyses and supporting analytical investigations are performed. Primarily, the gyrokinetic turbulence code Gene is employed to obtain the re- sults presented here – the derivation of its basic equations is outlined, along with its most important numerical features. Examples for contributions to its devel- opment are given in a detailed study of the effects of multiple (hyper-)diffusion terms on Gene simulations, as well as in an overview of data visualization tools. The rest of the thesis is focussed on physical scenarios. Advances are presented in electromagnetic simulations with so-called Cyclone Base Case parameters: Linearly, the subdominant and stable behavior of Kinetic Ballooning Modes (KBMs) is studied, along with mode interactions and trans- formations. The nonlinearly accessible range of the plasma pressure is extended significantly, showing for the first time examples of KBM turbulence. Multiple analyses concerning the transport levels at high pressure are performed, including quasilinear models and zonal flow studies. To augment these results, a second operation point is chosen in the Trapped Electron Mode regime which displays different physical behavior in multiple aspects. The aforementioned simulations are analyzed to solidify a test particle based model for the magnetic transport, to study the nature of changes to the magnetic geometry due to fluctuations of themagnetic field, and to investigate the behavior of fast ions as they are subjected to electromagnetic fields. Additionally, effects of realistic geometry on simulations at finite plasma pressure are discussed. Finally, two astrophysical scenarios are analyzed in the context of microturbulent heat transport levels.

abstract = {Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is encountered in a wide variety of astrophysical plasmas, including accretion disks, the solar wind, and the interstellar and intracluster medium. On small scales, this turbulence is often expected to consist of highly anisotropic fluctuations with frequencies small compared to the ion cyclotron frequency. For a number of applications, the small scales are also collisionless, so a kinetic treatment of the turbulence is necessary. We show that this anisotropic turbulence is well described by a low-frequency expansion of the kinetic theory called gyrokinetics. This paper is the first in a series to examine turbulent astrophysical plasmas in the gyrokinetic limit. We derive and explain the nonlinear gyrokinetic equations and explore the linear properties of gyrokinetics as a prelude to nonlinear simulations. The linear dispersion relation for gyrokinetics is obtained, and its solutions are compared to those of hot-plasma kinetic theory. These results are used to validate the performance of the gyrokinetic simulation code GS2 in the parameter regimes relevant for astrophysical plasmas. New results on global energy conservation in gyrokinetics are also derived. We briefly outline several of the problems to be addressed by future nonlinear simulations, including particle heating by turbulence in hot accretion flows and in the solar wind, the magnetic and electric field power spectra in the solar wind, and the origin of small-scale density fluctuations in the interstellar medium.},

abstract = {Gyrokinetic simulations of electrostatic driftwave instabilities in a tokamak edge have been carried out to study the turbulent transport in the pedestal of an H-mode plasma. The simulations use annulus geometry and focus on two radial regions of a DIII-D experiment: the pedestal top with a mild pressure gradient and the middle of the pedestal with a steep pressure gradient. A reactive trapped electron instability with a typical ballooning mode structure is excited by trapped electrons in the pedestal top. In the middle of the pedestal, the electrostatic instability exhibits an unusual mode structure, which peaks at the poloidal angle $\theta$=±$\pi$/2. The simulations find that this unusual mode structure is due to the steep pressure gradients in the pedestal but not due to the particular DIII-D magnetic geometry. Realistic DIII-D geometry appears to have a stabilizing effect on the instability when compared to a simple circular tokamak geometry.},

In particular, one finds a (strongly) local, forward (from large to small scales) cascade of free energy in the plane perpendicular to the background magnetic field. These findings shed light on some fundamental properties of plasma turbulence, and encourage the development of large-eddy-simulation techniques for gyrokinetics.},

A coordinate system for nonlinear fluid, gyrokinetic ‘‘Vlasov,'' or particle simulations is presented that exploits the elongated nature of the turbulence by resolving the minimum necessary simulation volume: a long thin twisting flux tube. It is very similar to the ballooning representation, although periodicity constraints can be incorporated in a manner that allows E×B nonlinearities to be evaluated efficiently with fast Fourier transforms (FFT's). If the parallel correlation length is very long, however, enforcing periodicity can introduce artificial correlations, so periodicity should not necessarily be enforced in the poloidal angle at $\theta$=±$\pi$. This method is applied to high resolution three‐dimensional simulations of toroidal ion temperature gradient (ITG) driven turbulence, which predict fluctuation spectra and ion heat transport similar to experimental measurements.},

For typical tokamak values, a relative error of 10(-7) in the ion or electron densities is enough to obtain the incorrect toroidal rotation. Based on the insights gained with the examples considered, three simple tests to check transport of toroidal angular momentum in full f simulations are proposed.

abstract = {Small scale turbulence in a magnetically confined fusion plasma drives energy and particle transport which determine the confinement. The plasma in a tokamak experiment has a toroidal rotation which may be driven externally, but can also arise spontaneously from turbulent momentum transport. This thesis investigates the interaction between turbulence and rotation via nonlinear numerical simulations, which use the gyrokinetic description in the frame that corotates with the plasma. A local gyrokinetic code is extended to include both the centrifugal force, and the stabilising effect of sheared equilibrium flow. Sheared flow perpendicular to the magnetic field suppresses the turbulence, and also breaks a symmetry of the local model. The resulting asymmetry creates a turbulent residual stress which can counteract diffusive momentum transport and contribute to spontaneous rotation. The competition between symmetry breaking and turbulence suppression results in a maximum in the nondiffusive momentum flux at intermediate shearing rates. Whilst this component of the momentum transport is driven by the sheared flow, it is also found to be suppressed by the shearing more strongly than the thermal transport. The direction of the residual stress reverses for negative magnetic shear, but also persists at zero magnetic shear. The parallel component of the centrifugal force traps particles on the outboard side of the plasma, which destabilises trapped particle driven modes. The perpendicular component of the centrifugal force appears as a centrifugal drift which modifies the phase relation between density and electric field perturbations, and is stabilising for both electron and ion driven instabilities. For ion temperature gradient dominated turbulence, an increased fraction of slow trapped electrons enhances the convective particle pinch, suggesting increased density peaking for strongly rotating plasmas. Heavy impurities feel the centrifugal force more strongly, therefore the effects of rotation are significant for impurities even when the bulk ion Mach number is low. For ion driven modes, rotation results in a strong impurity convection inward, whilst a more moderate convection outward is found for electron driven modes.},

abstract = {Two-dimensional gyrokinetics is a simple paradigm for the study of kinetic magnetised plasma turbulence. In this paper, we present a comprehensive theoretical framework for this turbulence. We study both the inverse and direct cascades (the ‘dual cascade'), driven by a homogeneous and isotropic random forcing. The key characteristic length of gyrokinetics, the Larmor radius, divides scales into two physically distinct ranges. For scales larger than the Larmor radius, we derive the familiar Charney–Hasegawa–Mima equation from the gyrokinetic system, and explain its relationship to gyrokinetics. At scales smaller than the Larmor radius, a dual cascade occurs in phase space (two dimensions in position space plus one dimension in velocity space) via a nonlinear phase-mixing process. We show that at these sub-Larmor scales, the turbulence is self-similar and exhibits power-law spectra in position and velocity space. We propose a Hankel-transform formalism to characterise velocity-space spectra. We derive the exact relations for third-order structure functions, analogous to Kolmogorov's four-fifths and Yaglom's four-thirds laws and valid at both long and short wavelengths. We show how the general gyrokinetic invariants are related to the particular invariants that control the dual cascade in the long- and short-wavelength limits. We describe the full range of cascades from the fluid to the fully kinetic range.},

These simula-tions, performed using all experimental inputs and realistic ion to electron mass ratio ((m i /m e) 1=2 ¼ 60.0), simultaneously capture turbulence at the ion (k h q s {\$} Oð1:0Þ) and electron-scales (k h q e {\$} Oð1:0Þ). Direct comparison with experimental heat fluxes and electron profile stiffness indi-cates that Electron Temperature Gradient (ETG) streamers and strong cross-scale turbulence cou-pling likely exist in both of the experimental conditions studied. The coupling between ion and electron-scales exists in the form of energy cascades, modification of zonal flow dynamics, and the effective shearing of ETG turbulence by long wavelength, Ion Temperature Gradient (ITG) turbu-lence. The tightly coupled nature of ITG and ETG turbulence in these realistic plasma conditions is shown to have significant implications for the interpretation of experimental transport and fluctua-tions. Initial attempts are made to develop a " rule of thumb " based on linear physics, to help predict when cross-scale coupling plays an important role and to inform future modeling of experimental dis-charges. The details of the simulations, comparisons with experimental measurements, and implica-tions for both modeling and experimental interpretation are discussed. Published by AIP Publishing.},

abstract = {The gyrokinetic G ENE code is used to study the inter-ELM H-mode pedestal profile evolution for an ASDEX Upgrade discharge. Density gradient driven trapped electron modes are the dominant pedestal instability during the early density-buildup phase. Nonlinear simulations produce particle transport levels consistent with experimental expectations. Later inter-ELM phases appear to be simultaneously constrained by electron temperature gradient (ETG) and kinetic ballooning mode (KBM) turbulence. The electron temperature gradient achieves a critical value early in the ELM cycle, concurrent with the appearance of both microtearing modes and ETG modes. Nonlinear ETG simulations demonstrate that the profiles lie at a nonlinear critical gradient. The nominal profiles are stable to KBM, but moderate increases in ? are sufficient to surpass the KBM threshold. Certain aspects of the dynamics support the premise of KBM-constrained pedestal evolution; the density and temperature profiles separately undergo large changes, but in a manner that keeps the pressure profile constant and near the KBM limit.},

A maximal ordering is invoked: the ordering parameter ϵ⪡1 is formally taken to be proportional to m/e, subject to the proviso that the parallel electric field E‖ ∼ ϵ. Electric drifts can be of the order of particle thermal velocities. The drift-kinetic equation is derived up to second order in ϵ, and is in a form such that the phase-space volume following the particle phase-space trajectories is preserved. The mean density, mean velocity, momentum flow tensor, and the presure tensor are evaluated in terms of the electromagnetic fields and the velocity moments of the drift-kinetic distribution function . The moments of the drift-kinetic equation reproduce the corresponding moments of the Vlasov equation up to order ϵ2. A consistent set of fluid-kinetic equations is formulated, with the fluid-like perpendicular motion described by the perpendicular component of the momentum equation. The drift-kinetic equation describes the parallel motion, and the solution is required to evaluate the velocity moments necessary to close the set of equations.},

abstract = {Parametric scalings of the intrinsic (spontaneous, with no external momentum input) toroidal rotation observed on a large number of tokamaks have been combined with an eye towards revealing the underlying mechanism(s) and extrapolation to future devices. The intrinsic rotation velocity has been found to increase with plasma stored energy or pressure in JET, Alcator C-Mod, Tore Supra, DIII-D, JT-60U and TCV, and to decrease with increasing plasma current in some of these cases. Use of dimensionless parameters has led to a roughly unified scaling with M A ∝ $\beta$ N , although a variety of Mach numbers works fairly well; scalings of the intrinsic rotation velocity with normalized gyro-radius or collisionality show no correlation. Whether this suggests the predominant role of MHD phenomena such as ballooning transport over turbulent processes in driving the rotation remains an open question. For an ITER discharge with $\beta$ N = 2.6, an intrinsic rotation Alfven Mach number of M A 0.02 may be expected from the above deduced scaling, possibly high enough to stabilize resistive wall modes without external momentum input.

abstract = {The generation of intrinsic rotation by turbulence and neoclassical effects in tokamaks is considered. To obtain the complex dependences observed in experiments, it is necessary to have a model of the radial flux of momentum that redistributes the momentum within the tokamak in the absence of a preexisting velocity. When the lowest order gyrokinetic formulation is used, a symmetry of the model precludes this possibility, making small effects in the gyroradius over scale length expansion necessary. These effects that are usually small become important for momentum transport because the symmetry of the lowest order gyrokinetic formulation leads to the cancellation of the lowest order momentum flux. The accuracy to which the gyrokinetic equation needs to be obtained to retain all the physically relevant effects is discussed. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.

The equations thus derived allow studying collisional and turbulent transport self-consistently, retaining the effect of magnetic field geometry without postulating any scale separation between the reference state and fluctuations. Previously, assuming scale separation, transport equations have been derived from kinetic equations by means of multiple-scale perturbation analysis and spatio-temporal averaging. In this work, the evolution equations for the moments of the distribution function are obtained following the standard approach; meanwhile, gyrokinetic theory has been used to explicitly express the fluctuation induced fluxes. In this way, equations for the transport of particles and energy up to the transport time scale can be derived using standard first order gyrokinetics.},

abstract = {In magnetized plasmas, a turbulent cascade occurs in phase space at scales smaller than the thermal Larmor radius ("sub-Larmor scales") [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 015003 (2009)]. When the turbulence is restricted to two spatial dimensions perpendicular to the background magnetic field, two independent cascades may take place simultaneously because of the presence of two collisionless invariants. In the present work, freely decaying turbulence of two-dimensional electrostatic gyrokinetics is investigated by means of phenomenological theory and direct numerical simulations. A dual cascade (forward and inverse cascades) is observed in velocity space as well as in position space, which we diagnose by means of nonlinear transfer functions for the collisionless invariants. We find that the turbulence tends to a time-asymptotic state, dominated by a single scale that grows in time. A theory of this asymptotic state is derived in the form of decay laws. Each case that we study falls into one of three regimes (weakly collisional, marginal, and strongly collisional), determined by a dimensionless number D*, a quantity analogous to the Reynolds number. The marginal state is marked by a critical number D* = D0 that is preserved in time. Turbulence initialized above this value become increasingly inertial in time, evolving toward larger and larger D*; turbulence initialized below D0 become more and more collisional, decaying to progressively smaller D*.},

abstract = {Gyrokinetics for high-frequency modes in tokamaks is developed. It is found that the breakdown of the invariants by perturbed electromagnetic fields drives microinstability. The obtained diamagnetic frequency, omega*, is proportional to only the toroidal mode number rather than transverse mode numbers. Therefore, there is no nonadiabatic drive for axisymmetrical modes in gyrokinetics. Meanwhile, the conventional eikonal Ansatz breaks down for the axisymmetrical modes. The ion drift-cyclotron instability discovered in a mirror machine is found for the first time in the toroidal system. The growth rates are proportional to rho(i)/L-n, and the slope changes with magnetic curvature. In spherical torus, where magnetic curvature is greater than that of traditional tokamaks, instability poses a potential danger to such devices. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.

abstract = {In electrostatic simulations of MAST plasma at electron-gyroradius scales, using the local flux-tube gyrokinetic code GS2 with adiabatic ions, we find that the long-time saturated electron heat flux (the level most relevant to energy transport) decreases as the electron collisionality decreases. At early simulation times, the heat flux "quasi-saturates" without any strong dependence on collisionality, and with the turbulence dominated by streamer-like radially elongated structures. However, the zonal fluctuation component continues to grow slowly until much later times, eventually leading to a new saturated state dominated by zonal modes and with the heat flux proportional to the collision rate, in approximate agreement with the experimentally observed collisionality scaling of the energy confinement in MAST. We outline an explanation of this effect based on a model of ETG turbulence dominated by zonal-nonzonal interactions and on an analytically derived scaling of the zonal-mode damping rate with the electron-ion collisionality. Improved energy confinement with decreasing collisionality is favourable towards the performance of future, hotter devices.},

abstract = {Tokamak turbulence, driven by the ion-temperature gradient and occurring in the presence of flow shear, is investigated by means of local, ion-scale, electrostatic gyrokinetic simulations (with both kinetic ions and electrons) of the conditions in the outer core of the Mega-Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST). A parameter scan in the local values of the ion-temperature gradient and flow shear is performed. It is demonstrated that the experimentally observed state is near the stability threshold and that this stability threshold is nonlinear: sheared turbulence is subcritical, i.e. the system is formally stable to small perturbations, but, given a large enough initial perturbation, it transitions to a turbulent state. A scenario for such a transition is proposed and supported by numerical results: close to threshold, the nonlinear saturated state and the associated anomalous heat transport are dominated by long-lived coherent structures, which drift across the domain, have finite amplitudes, but are not volume filling; as the system is taken away from the threshold into the more unstable regime, the number of these structures increases until they overlap and a more conventional chaotic state emerges. Whereas this appears to represent a new scenario for transition to turbulence in tokamak plasmas, it is reminiscent of the behaviour of other subcritically turbulent systems, e.g. pipe flows and Keplerian magnetorotational accretion flows.},

abstract = {An H-mode edge pedestal plasma transport benchmarking exercise was undertaken for a single DIII-D pedestal. Transport modelling codes used include 1.5D interpretive (ONETWO, GTEDGE), 1.5D predictive (ASTRA) and 2D ones (SOLPS, UEDGE). The particular DIII-D discharge considered is 98889, which has a typical low density pedestal. Profiles for the edge plasma are obtained from Thomson and charge-exchange recombination data averaged over the last 20{\%} of the average 33.53 ms repetition time between type I edge localized modes. The modelled density of recycled neutrals is largest in the divertor X-point region and causes the edge plasma source rate to vary by a factor {\~{}}102 on the separatrix. Modelled poloidal variations in the densities and temperatures on flux surfaces are small on all flux surfaces up to within about 2.6 mm ($\rho$N {\textgreater} 0.99) of the mid-plane separatrix. For the assumed Fick's-diffusion-type laws, the radial heat and density fluxes vary poloidally by factors of 2–3 in the pedestal region; they are largest on the outboard mid-plane where flux surfaces are compressed and local radial gradients are largest. Convective heat flows are found to be small fractions of the electron (10{\%}) and ion (25{\%}) heat flows in this pedestal. Appropriately averaging the transport fluxes yields interpretive 1.5D effective diffusivities that are smallest near the mid-point of the pedestal. Their 'transport barrier' minima are about 0.3 (electron heat), 0.15 (ion heat) and 0.035 (density) m2 s−1. Electron heat transport is found to be best characterized by electron-temperature-gradient-induced transport at the pedestal top and paleoclassical transport throughout the pedestal. The effective ion heat diffusivity in the pedestal has a different profile from the neoclassical prediction and may be smaller than it. The very small effective density diffusivity may be the result of an inward pinch flow nearly balancing a diffusive outward radial density flux. The inward ion pinch velocity and density diffusion coefficient are determined by a new interpretive analysis technique that uses information from the force balance (momentum conservation) equations; the paleoclassical transport model provides a plausible explanation of these new results. Finally, the measurements and additional modelling needed to facilitate better pedestal plasma transport modelling are discussed.},

abstract = {Two-dimensional gyrokinetics is a simple paradigm for the study of kinetic magnetised plasma turbulence. In this paper, we present a comprehensive theoretical framework for this turbulence. We study both the inverse and direct cascades (the ‘dual cascade'), driven by a homogeneous and isotropic random forcing. The key characteristic length of gyrokinetics, the Larmor radius, divides scales into two physically distinct ranges. For scales larger than the Larmor radius, we derive the familiar Charney–Hasegawa–Mima equation from the gyrokinetic system, and explain its relationship to gyrokinetics. At scales smaller than the Larmor radius, a dual cascade occurs in phase space (two dimensions in position space plus one dimension in velocity space) via a nonlinear phase-mixing process. We show that at these sub-Larmor scales, the turbulence is self-similar and exhibits power-law spectra in position and velocity space. We propose a Hankel-transform formalism to characterise velocity-space spectra. We derive the exact relations for third-order structure functions, analogous to Kolmogorov's four-fifths and Yaglom's four-thirds laws and valid at both long and short wavelengths. We show how the general gyrokinetic invariants are related to the particular invariants that control the dual cascade in the long- and short-wavelength limits. We describe the full range of cascades from the fluid to the fully kinetic range.},

abstract = {A new mechanism has recently been proposed that generates a radial flux of parallel momentum in toroidal plasmas. Namely, by considering up-down asymmetric flux surfaces, the symmetry following the magnetic field can be broken and an additional contribution to the turbulent momentum flux arises, potentially changing the intrinsic rotation profile. These predictions are tested with specific experiments on TCV. The intrinsic toroidal rotation is observed to change by roughly a factor of two when changing the up-down asymmetry of the plasma. More precisely, the toroidal rotation gradient changes in the outer part of the plasma, where the flux surface asymmetry is the highest.

Rotation velocities up to 3 x 10(4) m/sec in the co-current direction have been observed in the center of the best Ohmic H-mode plasmas. Purely ohmic H-mode plasmas display many characteristics similar to ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) heated H-mode plasmas, including the scaling of the rotation velocity with plasma parameters and the formation of edge pedestals in the electron density and temperature profiles. Very long impurity confinement times (similar to 1 sec) are seen in edge localized mode-free (ELM-free) Ohmic H-modes and the inward impurity convection velocity profile has been determined to be close to the calculated neoclassical profile.

The gyrokinetic equation is expanded in powers of the electron to ion mass ratio, which provides a rigorous method for deriving the reduced electron model. We prove that ion-scale electromagnetic turbulence cannot change the magnetic topology, and argue that to lowest order the magnetic field lies on fluctuating flux surfaces. These flux surfaces are used to construct magnetic coordinates, and in these coordinates a closed system of equations for the electron response to ion-scale turbulence is derived. All fast electron timescales have been eliminated from these equations. We also use these magnetic surfaces to construct transport equations for electrons and for electron heat in terms of the reduced electron model.},

Balance equations for the turbulententropy density, the energy of electromagneticfluctuations, the turbulenttransport fluxes of particle and heat, and the collisional dissipation are derived from the gyrokineticequation including the collision term and Maxwell equations. It is shown that, in the steady turbulence, the entropy produced by the turbulenttransport fluxes is dissipated in part by collisions in the nonzonal-mode region and in part by those in the zonal-mode region after the nonlinear entropy transfer from nonzonal to zonal modes.},

abstract = {Observations of clusters of galaxies show ubiquitous presence of X-ray cavities, presumably blown by the AGN jets. We consider magnetic field structures of these cavities. Stability requires that they contain both toroidal and poloidal magnetic fields, while realistic configurations should have vanishing magnetic field on the boundary. For axisymmetric configurations embedded in unmagnetized plasma, the continuity of poloidal and toroidal magnetic field components on the surface of the bubble then requires solving the elliptical Grad-Shafranov equation with both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. This leads to a double eigenvalue problem, relating the pressure gradients and the toroidal magnetic field to the radius of the bubble. We have found fully analytical stable solutions. This result is confirmed by numerical simulation. We present synthetic X-ray images and synchrotron emission profiles and evaluate the rotation measure for radiation traversing the bubble.},

abstract = {A mechanism is proposed and evaluated for driving rotation in tokamak plasmas by minority ion-cyclotron heating, even though this heating introduces negligible angular momentum. The mechanism has two elements: First, angular momentum transport is governed by a diffusion equation with a boundary condition at the separatrix. Second, Monte Carlo calculations show that ion-cyclotron energized particles will provide a torque density source which has a zero volume integral but separated positive and negative regions. With such a source, a solution of the diffusion equation predicts that ion-cyclotron heating will cause a rotational shear layer to develop. The corresponding jump in plasma rotation Delta Omega is found to be negative outwards when the ion-cyclotron surface lies on the low-field side of the magnetic axis and positive outwards with the resonance on the high-field side. The magnitude of the jump Delta Omega=(4q(max)WJ(2)*) (eBR(3)a(2)n(e)(2 pi)(2))(-1)(tau (M)/tau (E)) where $\backslash$J(2)*$\backslash$approximate to2-4 is a nondimensional rotation frequency calculated by the Monte Carlo ORBIT code [R. B. White and M. S. Chance, Phys. Fluids 27, 2455 (1984)]. For a no-slip boundary condition when the resonance lies on the low-field side of the magnetic axis, the sense of predicted axial rotation is co-current and overall agreement with experiment is good. When the resonance lies on the high-field side, the predicted rotation becomes countercurrent for a no-slip boundary while the observed rotation remains co-current. The rotational shear layer position is controllable and of sufficient magnitude to affect microinstabilities. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.},

abstract = {This paper studies the turbulent cascade of magnetic energy in weakly collisional magnetized plasmas. A cascade model is presented, based on the assumptions of local nonlinear energy transfer in wavenumber space, critical balance between linear propagation and nonlinear interaction times, and the applicability of linear dissipation rates for the nonlinearly turbulent plasma. The model follows the nonlinear cascade of energy from the driving scale in the MHD regime, through the transition at the ion Larmor radius into the kinetic Alfven wave regime, in which the turbulence is dissipated by kinetic processes. The turbulent fluctuations remain at frequencies below the ion cyclotron frequency due to the strong anisotropy of the turbulent fluctuations, k{\_}parallel {\textless}{\textless} k{\_}perp (implied by critical balance). In this limit, the turbulence is optimally described by gyrokinetics; it is shown that the gyrokinetic approximation is well satisfied for typical slow solar wind parameters. Wave phase velocity measurements are consistent with a kinetic Alfven wave cascade and not the onset of ion cyclotron damping. The conditions under which the gyrokinetic cascade reaches the ion cyclotron frequency are established. Cascade model solutions imply that collisionless damping provides a natural explanation for the observed range of spectral indices in the dissipation range of the solar wind. The dissipation range spectrum is predicted to be an exponential fall off; the power-law behavior apparent in observations may be an artifact of limited instrumental sensitivity. The cascade model is motivated by a programme of gyrokinetic simulations of turbulence and particle heating in the solar wind.},

abstract = {This paper presents a complete theoretical framework for plasma turbulence and transport in tokamak plasmas. The fundamental scale separations present in plasma turbulence are codified as an asymptotic expansion in the ratio of the gyroradius to the equilibrium scale length. Proceeding order-by-order in this expansion, a framework for plasma turbulence is developed. It comprises an instantaneous equilibrium, the fluctuations driven by gradients in the equilibrium quantities, and the transport-timescale evolution of mean profiles of these quantities driven by the fluctuations. The equilibrium distribution functions are local Maxwellians with each flux surface rotating toroidally as a rigid body. The magnetic equillibrium is obtained from the Grad-Shafranov equation for a rotating plasma and the slow (resistive) evolution of the magnetic field is given by an evolution equation for the safety factor q. Large-scale deviations of the distribution function from a Maxwellian are given by neoclassical theory. The fluctuations are determined by the high-flow gyrokinetic equation, from which we derive the governing principle for gyrokinetic turbulence in tokamaks: the conservation and local cascade of free energy. Transport equations for the evolution of the mean density, temperature and flow velocity profiles are derived. These transport equations show how the neoclassical corrections and the fluctuations act back upon the mean profiles through fluxes and heating. The energy and entropy conservation laws for the mean profiles are derived. Total energy is conserved and there is no net turbulent heating. Entropy is produced by the action of fluxes flattening gradients, Ohmic heating, and the equilibration of mean temperatures. Finally, this framework is condensed, in the low-Mach-number limit, to a concise set of equations suitable for numerical implementation.},

On the basis of an analysis of the ITER L-mode energy confinement database, two new scaling$\backslash$nexpressions for tokamak L-mode energy confinement are proposed, namely a power law scaling and an offset-linear$\backslash$nscaling. The analysis indicates that the present multiplicity of scaling expressions for the energy confinement time TE$\backslash$nin tokamaks (Goldston, Kaye, Odajima-Shimomura, Rebut-Lallia, etc.) is due both to the lack of variation of a key$\backslash$nparameter combination in the database, fs = 0.32 R a"075 k05 {\~{}} A aO25k05, and to variations in the dependence of$\backslash$nrE on the physical parameters among the different tokamaks in the database.

To reduce the multiplicity of the$\backslash$nscalings for energy confinement, the database must be improved by adding new data with significant variations in fs,$\backslash$nand the physical reasons for the tokamak to tokamak variation of some of the dependences of the energy confinement$\backslash$ntime on tokamak parameters must be clarified.},

@article{Terry2015,
abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2015 IAEA, Vienna.Recent results on electromagnetic turbulence from gyrokinetic studies in different magnetic configurations are overviewed, detailing the physics of electromagnetic turbulence and transport, and the effect of equilibrium magnetic field scale lengths. Ion temperature gradient (ITG) turbulence is shown to produce magnetic stochasticity through nonlinear excitation of linearly stable tearing-parity modes. The excitation, which is catalyzed by the zonal flow, produces an electron heat flux proportional to $\beta$2 that deviates markedly from quasilinear theory. Above a critical beta known as the non-zonal transition (NZT), the magnetic fluctuations disable zonal flows by allowing electron streaming that shorts zonal potential between flux surfaces. This leads to a regime of very high transport levels. Kinetic ballooning mode (KBM) saturation is described. For tokamaks saturation involves twisted structures arising from magnetic shear; for helical plasmas oppositely inclined convection cells interact by mutual shearing. Microtearing modes are unstable in the magnetic geometry of tokamaks and the reversed field pinch (RFP). In NSTX instability requires finite collisionality, large beta, and is favored by increasing magnetic shear and decreasing safety factor. In the RFP, a new branch of microtearing with finite growth rate at vanishing collisionality is shown from analytic theory to require the electron grad-B/curvature drift resonance. However, gyrokinetic modeling of experimental MST RFP discharges at finite beta reveals turbulence that is electrostatic, has large zonal flows, and a large Dimits shift. Analysis shows that the shorter equilibrium magnetic field scale lengths increase the critical gradients associated with the instability of trapped electron modes, ITG and microtearing, while increasing beta thresholds for KBM instability and the NZT.},

abstract = {A mechanism for turbulent acceleration of parallel rotation is discovered using gyrokinetic theory. This new turbulent acceleration term cannot be written as a divergence of parallel Reynolds stress. Therefore, turbulent acceleration acts as a local source or sink of parallel rotation. The physics of turbulent acceleration is intrinsically different from the Reynolds stress. For symmetry breaking by positive intensity gradient, a positive turbulent acceleration, i.e., cocurrent rotation, is predicted. The turbulent acceleration is independent of mean rotation and mean rotation gradient, and so constitutes a new candidate for the origin of spontaneous rotation. A quasilinear estimate for ion temperature gradient turbulence shows that the turbulent acceleration of parallel rotation is explicitly linked to the ion temperature gradient scale length and temperature ratio T-i0/T-e0. Methods for testing the effects of turbulent parallel acceleration by gyrokinetic simulation and experiment are proposed},

abstract = {While the results of early work on the density limit in tokamaks from the ORMAK and DITE groups have been useful over the years, results from recent experiments and the requirements for extrapolation to future experiments have prompted a new look at this subject. There are many physical processes which limit the attainable densities in tokamak plasmas. These processes include: (1) radiation from low Z impurities, convection, charge exchange and other losses at the plasma edge; (2) radiation from low or high Z impurities in the plasma core; (3) deterioration of particle confinement in the plasma core; and (4) inadequate fuelling, often exacerbated by strong pumping by walls, limiters or divertors. Depending upon the circumstances, any of these processes may dominate and determine a density limit. In general, these mechanisms do not show the same dependence on plasma parameters. The multiplicity of processes leading to density limits with a variety of scaling has led to some confusion when comparing density limits for different machines. The authors attempt to sort out the various limits and to extend the scaling law for one of them to include the important effects of plasma shaping, i.e. {\#}{\#}IMG{\#}{\#} [http://ej.iop.org/icons/Entities/barn.gif] {\{}bar n{\}} ; e = k {\#}{\#}IMG{\#}{\#} [http://ej.iop.org/icons/Entities/barJ.gif] {\{}bar J{\}} , where n e is the line average electron density (10 20 m −3 ), $\kappa$ is the plasma elongation and {\#}{\#}IMG{\#}{\#} [http://ej.iop.org/icons/Entities/barJ.gif] {\{}bar J{\}} (MA{\textperiodcentered}m −2 ) is the average plasma current density, defined as the total current divided by the plasma cross-sectional area. In a sense, this is the most important density limit since, together with the q-limit, it yields the maximum operating density for a tokamak plasma. It is shown that this limit may be caused by a dramatic deterioration in core particle confinement occurring as the density limit boundary is approached. This mechanism can help explain the disruptions and Marfes that are associated with the density limit.},

@article{Lovelace2002,
abstract = {The powerful narrow jets observed to emanate from many compact accreting objects may arise from the twisting of a magnetic field threading a differentially rotating accretion disk which acts to magnetically extract angular momentum and energy from the disk. Two main regimes have been discussed, it hydromagnetic outflows, which have a significant mass flux and have energy and angular momentum carried by both the matter and the electromagnetic field and, Poynting outflows, where the mass flux is negligible and energy and angular momentum are carried predominantly by the electromagnetic field. Here we consider a Keplerian disk initially threaded by a dipole-like magnetic field and we present solutions of the force-free Grad-Shafranov equation for the coronal plasma. We find solutions with Poynting jets where there is a continuous outflow of energy and toroidal magnetic flux from the disk into the external space. This behavior contradicts the commonly accepted ``theorem'' of Solar plasma physics that the motion of the footpoints of a magnetic loop structure leads to a stationary magnetic field configuration with zero power and flux outflows. In addition we discuss recent magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations which establish that quasi-stationary collimated Poynting jets similar to our Grad-Shafranov solutions arise from the inner part of a disk threaded by a dipole-like magnetic field. At the same time we find that there is a steady uncollimated hydromagnetic outflow from the outer part of the disk. The Poynting jets represent a likely model for the jets from active galactic nuclei, microquasars, and gamma ray burst sources.},

@article{Romeo2008,
abstract = {In the year 2003 a paper by G. Lapenta demonstrated that there is a new class of soliton-like solutions for the Grad-Shafranov Equations (GSE).The author determined an appropriate pair of transformations of the free fields p (fluid field of hydrodynamical pressure) and Bz (z- component of magnetic induction field) that leads from the Helmholtz Equation to the Non-Linear Schroedinger Equation (NLSE) with cubic non- linearity. In the following year (2004), the work of Lapenta was opposed by G.N. Throumoulopoulos et al.,who criticized his idea of the field transformations as a mathematically incoherent choice; contextually the authors suggested a new point of view for this one. In his response, in the same year, G. Lapenta carried out numerical simulations that showed the existence of solitonic structures in a Magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) plasma-context. In the present work I want to demonstrate a critical condition for a complex poloidal flux function psi in a plane framework (x;y) that leads to a class of pseudo-general NLSEs which establishes the validity of both G.Lapenta and G.N. Throumoulopoulos et al. choices for the field transformation functionals.},

@article{Barnes2009,
abstract = {A new analytically and numerically manageable model collision operator is developed specifically for turbulence simulations. The like-particle collision operator includes both pitch-angle scattering and energy diffusion and satisfies the physical constraints required for collision operators: it conserves particles, momentum and energy, obeys Boltzmann's H-theorem (collisions cannot decrease entropy), vanishes on a Maxwellian, and efficiently dissipates small-scale structure in the velocity space. The process of transforming this collision operator into the gyroaveraged form for use in gyrokinetic simulations is detailed. The gyroaveraged model operator is shown to have more suitable behavior at small scales in phase space than previously suggested models. A model operator for electron-ion collisions is also presented.},

@article{Cremaschini2008,
abstract = {The consistent theoretical description of gravitational Hall-MHD (G-Hall-MHD) equilibria is of fundamental importance for understanding the phenomenology of accretion disks (AD) around compact objects (black holes, neutron stars, etc.). The very existence of these equilibria is actually suggested by observations, which show evidence of quiescent, and essentially non-relativistic, AD plasmas close to compact stars, thus indicating that accretion disks may be characterized by slowly varying EM and fluid fields. These (EM) fields, in particular the electric field, may locally be extremely intense, so that AD plasmas are likely to be locally non-neutral and therefore characterized by the presence of Hall currents. This suggests therefore that such equilibria should be described in the framework of the Hall-MHD theory. Extending previous approaches, holding for non-rotating plasmas or based on specialized single-species model equilibria which ignore the effect of space-time curvature, the purpose of this work is the formulation of a generalized Grad-Shafranov (GGS) equation suitable for the investigation of G-Hall-MHD equilibria in AD's where non-relativistic plasmas are present. For this purpose the equilibria are assumed to be generated by a strong axisymmetric stellar magnetic field and by the gravitating plasma characterizing the AD.},

abstract = {In this paper, the problem of stationary MHD flow for a rotating toroidal plasma is investigated by assuming that the entropy is a surface quantity. Then, the system of ideal MHD equations is reduced to a single second-order elliptic partial differential equation known as the modified Grad-Shafranov (or Maschke-Perrin) equation. Under the assumption that both the function, P s and f 2 are quadratic polynomials of the flux function, a class of semi-analytical solutions is obtained for a plasma contained in a perfectly conducting toroidal boundary with a rectangular cross section. The flux function, poloidal current and the generalized pressure are obtained and discussed for relevant values of the parameters.},
