Global gyrokinetic turbulence simulations of MAST plasmas

Global gyrokinetic turbulence simulations of MAST plasmas

Electrostatic gyrokinetic analyses are presented for an L-mode discharge with an internal transport barrier, from the spherical tokamak, MAST. Local and global microstability analysis finds similar linear growth rates for ion temperature gradient (ITG) driven modes. When the electron response is ass...
