ETG turbulent transport in the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST) pedestal

The results of a gyrokinetic analysis of turbulent transport driven by the electron temperature gradient (ETG) in the MAST pedestal are presented. Local nonlinear simulations from the gyrokinetic code, GENE, show that heat flux produced by ETG turbulence is 10%–30% of the total applied heating power...
