Description

The interaction of RF field with toroidally trapped particles (bananas) can cause their intrinsic stochasticity diffusion both in the configuration and velocity space. In RF heating and/or current drive regimes, RF field can interact with plasma particles and with thermonuclear alpha particles. The aim of this contribution is to give some analytical estimates of induced radial diffusion of alphas and of ions. (author) 13 refs
