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

Multi-channel, nonlinear predictions of core temperature and density profiles are performed
for the SPARC tokamak (Creely et al 2020 J. Plasma Phys. 86 865860502) accounting for …

This paper presents the current state of the global gyrokinetic code Orb 5 as an update of the
previous reference (Jolliet et al., 2007). The Orb 5 code solves the electromagnetic Vlasov …

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 …

Turbulence in hot magnetized plasmas is shown to generate permeable localized transport
barriers that globally organize into the so-called" E x B staircase"[G. Dif-Pradalier et al …

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 …

Gyrokinetic tokamak plasmas can exhibit intrinsic toroidal rotation driven by the residual
stress. While most studies have attributed the residual stress to the parallel-momentum flux …

We present experimental observations suggesting that non-diffusive avalanche-like
transport events are a prevalent and universal process in the electron heat transport of …

Turbulent transport is undoubtedly important in magnetic confinement plasmas. It has been
reported that a lot of transport dynamics are not satisfying the local diffusive models. Here …
