Compact formulas for guiding-center orbits in axisymmetric tokamak geometry
- Department of Chemistry and Physics, Saint Michael's College Colchester, Vermont 05439 (United States)
Compact formulas for trapped-particle and passing-particle guiding-center orbits in axisymmetric tokamak geometry are given in terms of the Jacobi elliptic functions and complete elliptic integrals. These formulas can find applications in bounce-center kinetic theory as well as guiding-center Fokker-Planck kinetic theory.
