Gyrokinetic limitations and improvements

35th EPS Conference on Plasma Physics 2008, EPS 2008 - Europhysics Conference Abstracts 32:2 (2008) 1418-1421

Authors:

PJ Catto, FI Parra, G Kagan, AN Simakov

Abstract:

For a tokamak, we consider gyrokinetic quasineutrality limitations when evaluating the axisymmetric radial electric field; a gyrokinetic entropy production restriction on the ion temperature pedestal; and a hybrid gyrokinetic-fluid treatment valid on transport time scales.
