Description

Enhanced ion transport due to toroidal field ripple is a concern in the design of tokamak power reactors. This concern is quantified for advanced fuel cycle applications where the simultaneous requirement of high /eta//tau/ and high T makes the constraint on deviation from axisymmetry especially severe
