Transport Analysis In Tokamak Plasmas : Model developments and data analysis

One of the least understood areas of the plasma particle or heat transport is the turbulent transport. In this work the main focus is on the development and data analysis of anomalous transport characteristics (transport coefficients and fluxes) under fusion conditions in large tokamaks. Fluid and gyro-kinetic models are used and obtained results are compared. A model based on fractional kinetics for the study of the SOL turbulent transport characteristics, where non-Gaussian PDFs are observed, is developed.
