Angular momentum transport and plasma
rotation in response to injected neutral beam torque is a subject both of
intrinsic interest and practical consequence (stabilization of MHD
instabilities, effect on the H-mode edge pedestal, etc.) in tokamak
physics. Faculty and students in the FRC and collaborators have developed
the gyroviscous neoclassical theory for angular momentum transfer and
applied it to predict rotation and momentum confinement measured in a number
of experiments.
