Sensitivities of electron-scale core transport in MAST Upgrade
B. S. Patel, T. Adkins, S. Blackmore +2
Integrated modelling of the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak Upgrade (MAST-U) indicates that turbulent electron heat transport can dominate over ion transport across a range of operat…

On electromagnetic turbulence and transport in STEP
Maurizio Giacomin, Daniel Kennedy, Francis J Casson +4
In this work, we present first-of-their-kind nonlinear local gyrokinetic simulations of electromagnetic turbulence at mid-radius in the burning plasma phase of the conceptual high-…
