Intrinsic Rotation Driven by Non-Maxwellian Equilibria in Tokamak Plasmas

Intrinsic Rotation Driven by Non-Maxwellian Equilibria in Tokamak Plasmas

The effect of small deviations from a Maxwellian equilibrium on turbulent momentum transport in tokamak plasmas is considered. These non-Maxwellian features, arising from diamagnetic effects, introduce a strong dependence of the radial flux of cocurrent toroidal angular momentum on collisionality: A...
