THEORY-BASED TRANSPORT MODELING

Developed the TGLF and GLF23 drift-wave transport models. GLF23 has been used routinely by researchers at major labs around the world. Can reproduce the experimental transition of ion heat transport from gyroBohm (co-injection) to Bohm-like (counter-injection) in DIII-D H-mode


GYROKINETIC SIMULATION AND RESEARCH

Developed world's most comprehensive gyrokinetic code, GYRO. Recovered experimental levels of ion and electron transport in DIII-D L-mode from first-principles simulations


GYROKINETIC THEORY

Developed de facto standard analytic theory (Rosenbluth-Hinton) of zonal flows, reduced electromagnetic gyrokinetic equations, and an Ohm's law which describes electromagnetic turbulence as well as neoclassical conductivity and bootstrap current
