Global gyrokinetic simulations of kinetic ballooning mode in NSTX-U plasmas

Understanding the kinetic ballooning mode (KBM) is crucial for optimizing plasma performance in high- β spherical tokamaks. Global gyrokinetic simulations of KBMs in a projected NSTX-U shot are presented using realistic magnetic geometry and plasma profiles. Linear simulations across varying plasma...
