Improved Conservative Scheme for Lenard‐Bernstein Collisions in Gyrokinetic Turbulence Simulations
Turbulence in the edge and scrape‐off layer regions plays a critical role for the performance of future magnetic confinement fusion power plants. Gyrokinetic simulations allow studying this regime with high fidelity. A key aspect in these regions is the high concentration of impurities, which can radiate energy, lead...
