Paraxial beams in fluctuating fusion plasmas: Diffusive limit and beyond

A paraxial expansion of the (ensemble-averaged) Wigner function in the relevant wave kinetic equation for electron cyclotron waves in fluctuating plasmas allows the derivation of phase-space equations similar to the equations for the Gaussian beam parameters in the paraxial WKB method [G.V.
