Neoclassical generation of toroidal zonal flow by drift wave turbulence
Zonal-flow instabilities due to drift-wave turbulence in the presence of toroidicity-induced parallel (neoclassical) viscosity and allowing for the toroidal flow are studied. It is shown that, as a re...

Influence of the boundary conditions on the H-mode power threshold
The effect of boundary conditions at the last closed magnetic surface (LCMS) on the formation of the edge transport barrier (ETB) in tokamaks is investigated by one-dimensional transport calculations ...

A previously published magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) model of error-field penetration in tokamak plasmas is extended to take drift-MHD physics into account. In particular, diamagnetic and semicollisional effects are both fully incorporated into the analysis. The new model is used to examine the scaling of the penetration threshold in ohmic tokamak plasmas. ©2006 American Institute of Physics
