At W7-AS, the confinement properties are analyzed and compared mainly with neoclassical predictions for quite different conditions. Low density ECRH discharges allow access to the very long mean free path regime for electrons ( Q up to 4 keV at fl"= | 2Kt01e m-3) whereas combined NBL/ ECRH discharges at high density (7.= T/ 1 keV at fl.= I02o m-3) lead to high performance. Depending on the achi...

A significant inward flux of toroidal momentum is found in global gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient turbulence, leading to core plasma rotation spin-up. The underlying mechanism is identified to be the generation of residual stress due to the k parallel symmetry breaking induced by global quasistationary zonal flow shear. Simulations also show a significant off-diagonal elemen...

With respect to the particle flux, the off-diagonal term in the neoclassical transport matrix becomes crucial in the stellarator long-mean-free-path (lmfp) regime. Central heating with peaked temperature profiles can make an active density profile control by central particle refuelling mandatory. The neoclassical particle confinement can exceed significantly the energy confinement at the outer ...

Monte Carlo ion simulation based on neoclassical radial current balance in a divertor tokamak gives a stationary sheared E-->xB--> flow. The neoclassical radial electric field E(r) shows no bifurcation in contrast with earlier orbit loss models, but the shear in E(r) reaches values at which a transition to enhanced confinement has been observed. Also, MHD turbulence analysis shows that a smooth...

Loss Aversion and Labor Supply In many occupations workers’ labor supply choices are constrained by institutional rules regulating labor time and effort provision. This renders explicit tests of the neoclassical theory of labor supply difficult. Here we present evidence from studies examining labor supply responses in “neoclassical environments” in which workers are free to choose when and how ...

Modeling and detailed simulation of neoclassical transport phenomena both in 2D and 3D toroidal configurations are shown. The emphasis is put on the effect of finiteness of the drift-orbit width, which brings a non-local nature to neoclassical transport phenomena. Evolution of the self-consistent radial electric field in the framework of neoclassical transport is also investigated. The combinat...

In this paper we present a graphical analysis framework for the new neoclassical synthesis, which can be used to explain and interpret the behavior of the new neoclassical model under shocks. We elaborate the role of expectations on output and inflation as well as the influence of the monetary authority.
