| Popis: | Direct measurements of micro-, meso-, and macroscale transport phenomena in the FT-2 tokamak are shown to be quantitatively reproduced by global full $f$ nonlinear gyrokinetic simulation predictions. A detailed agreement with mean equilibrium $E\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}B$ flows, oscillating fine-scale zonal flows, and turbulence spectra observed by a set of sophisticated microwave backscattering techniques as well as a good fit of the thermal diffusivity data are demonstrated. A clear influence of the impurity ions on the fluctuating radial electric field is observed. |
