Gyrokinetic turbulence and transport in the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak

<p>In this thesis we consider energy transport due to turbulence in the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST), using a multi-scale framework based on local δf gyrokinetics. Transport is modelled globally by means of local flux-tube simulations at each magnetic flux surface. In view of the ev...
