Zero-Turbulence Manifold in a Toroidal Plasma

Zero-Turbulence Manifold in a Toroidal Plasma

Sheared toroidal flows can cause bifurcations to zero-turbulent-transport states in tokamak plasmas. The maximum temperature gradients that can be reached are limited by subcritical turbulence driven by the parallel velocity gradient. Here it is shown that q/ϵ (magnetic field pitch/inverse aspect ra...
