Energy dependency of runaway-electron transport in perturbed fields

Description

In this contribution, we study the transport in perturbed magnetic fields using an orbit-following Monte Carlo method to calculate the energy-dependent transport coefficients. The orbit-following calculations are done with ASCOT5 code. By using an ITER magnetic field with artificial perturbations, we find an agreement between the theory and simulations. The transport is found to depend on the magnetic field autocorrelation lengths, the electron gyroradius and the poloidal orbit width as expected.
