Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:24.05(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)Neoclassical Tearing Modes, NTMs, are known to limit the maximum attainable plasma pressure, degrade confinement and, at worst, culminate in disruption of the tokamak discharges. Key role in NTM evolution belongs to the radial profiles of the plasma flow, temperature and density which are determined by the conjunction of the longitudinal and cross-filed transport arising from thermal conduction, particle diffusion, and viscosity. In this report the influence of anomalous perpendicular heat transport and anomalous ion perpendicular viscosity on early stage of the NTM evolution is studied theoretically.

Influence of anomalous perpendicular heat transport and anomalous perpendicular viscosity on conditions of Neoclassical Tearing Mode onset is studied theoretically. Series of different parallel transport mechanisms competitive to anomalous cross-island heat conductivity in the perturbed temperature profile are considered.In the transport threshold model, magnetic curvature effect is as much important as bootstrap drive weakened by the finite perpendicular heat transport. Perpendicular viscosity brings island-rotation-frequency dependence of the transport threshold model.

Behavior of energetic particles in spherical torus (ST) is summarized in comparison with that in tokamaks. The issues treated in this article are neoclassical transport, ripple loss, Alfven eigenmodes and Magetohydrodynamic- instability-induced anomalous transport. ST is expected to be favorable in terms of neoclassical transport and ripple loss. On the other hand, Alfven eigenmodes and the resulting energetic particle loss can be serious concerns in a ST reactor because of a high volume-averaged beta and a super-Alfvenic speed of alpha particles.
