Equivalence of two different approaches to global<i>δ</i><i>f</i>gyrokinetic simulations
A set of flux tube gyrokinetic equations that includes the effect of the spatial variation of the density, temperature and rotation gradients on the turbulence is derived. This new set of equations uses periodic boundary conditions. In the limit l⊥/L ≪ 1, where l⊥ is the characteristic perpendicular length of …
