This paper presents a pedagogical review of the physics of mesoscopic transport events and
their role in the breakdown of Fick's Law for turbulent transport in magnetically confined …

The understanding and prediction of transport due to plasma microturbulence is a key open
problem in modern plasma physics, and a grand challenge for fusion energy research. Ab …

The high plasma temperatures expected at reactor conditions in magnetic confinement
fusion toroidal devices suggest that near-marginal operation could be a reality in future …

This paper addresses non-linear gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient (ITG)
turbulence in tokamak plasmas. The electrostatic GYSELA code is one of the few …

A systematic, constructive and self-consistent procedure to quantify nonlocal, nondiffusive
action at a distance in plasma turbulence is exposed and applied to turbulent heat fluxes …

In this paper, recent progress on experimental analysis and theoretical models for non-local
transport (non-Fickian fluxes in real space) is reviewed. The non-locality in the heat and …

Magnetic confinement fusion offers the promise of sustainable and safe energy production
on Earth. Advanced experimental scenarios exploit the fascinating yet uncommon ability of …

The interaction of static Resonant Magnetic Perturbations (RMPs) with the plasma flows is
modeled in toroidal geometry, using the non-linear resistive MHD code JOREK, which …

The impact on turbulent transport of geodesic acoustic modes excited by energetic particles
is evidenced for the first time in flux-driven 5D gyrokinetic simulations using the Gysela code …

We show that a class of near-marginal and low-collisional magnetised plasmas naturally
evolve into a globally organised state dubbed the'$\mathbf {E}\times\mathbf {B} $ staircase' …
