The nonlinear gyro-kinetic flux tube code GKW

TL;DR: A new nonlinear gyro-kinetic flux tube code (GKW) for the simulation of micro instabilities and turbulence in magnetic confinement plasmas is presented in this paper, which incorporates all physics effects that can be expected from a state of the art gyro -kinetic simulation code in the local limit.

Transport of Parallel Momentum Induced by Current-Symmetry Breaking in Toroidal Plasmas

TL;DR: In toroidal plasmas, the symmetry along a magnetic field line usually constrains the radial flux of parallel momentum to zero in the absence of background flows but by breaking the up-down symmetry of the toroidal currents this constraint can be relaxed.
