Impurity transport in plasma edge turbulence

Abstract

The turbulent transport of minority species/impurities is investigated in 2D drift-wave turbulence as well as in 3D toroidal drift-Alfven edge turbulence. The full effects of perpendicular and -- in 3D -- parallel advection are kept for the impurity species. Anomalous pinch effects are recovered and explained in terms of Turbulent EquiPartition (TEP)Comment: 12th International Congress on Plasma Physics, 25-29 October 2004, Nice (France
