Stellarator transport simulation using δf Monte Carlo algorithms
Description
Several versions of Monte Carlo codes based on δf methods are under development for studying transport in nonaxisymmetric toroidal plasmas. This paper reports initial progress of the development. The δf simulations of neoclassical diffusion and bootstrap current in a stellarator are presented together with the results of benchmark using a tokamak geometry. Comparisons with conventional Monte Carlo methods are also made. (author)
