An advection-diffusion model for cross-field runaway electron transport in perturbed magnetic fields

Joan Decker

Disruption-generated runaway electrons (RE) present an outstanding issue for ITER. The predictive computational studies of RE generation rely on orbit-averaged computations and, as such, they lack the effects from the magnetic field stochasticity. Since st ...
