Plasma transport in advanced stellarators
Description
The present paper reformulates the neoclassical theory of general toroidal equilibria. The relevant geometrical parameters are identified and it is shown how the reduction of Pfirsch-Schlueter currents affects neoclassical transport and bootstrap effects. The influence of turbulent electromagnetic fluctuations is also discussed. Since a toroidal loop voltage is included, the theory is valid for all toroidal systems. (author)
