The neoclassical transport of toroidal momentum in tokamaks
Allowing for the presence of an expected moderate concentration ({approximately}10%) of low energy ions in excess of the Maxwellian distribution causes a dramatic change in the neoclassical prediction for momentum transport, leading to agreement in magnitude with experiment. 20 refs.
