Abstract

Classical diffusion coefficient of toroidal plasma in ideal case is derived by MHD model and by particle orbit model in Sect. 5.1. Neoclassical diffusion coefficient in rare collisional (banana) region (5.26) and intermediate (platau) region (5.27) are derived in Sect. 5.2. Section 5.3 explains the mechanism of bootstrap current induced by the orbit of banana electrons and density gradient.
