Collisions in EUTERPE code — •Karla Kauffmann and Ralf Kleiber — Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik, Teilinstitut Greifswald

In stellarators, neoclassical transport is dominant in the core, therefore collisions are important. EUTERPE is a 3-D δ f gyrokinetic PIC code which is currently collisionless. It is necessary, then, to add collisional effects to the δ f method and to test its applicability. Some basic tests were performed, such as the Spitzer problem in a tokamak and radial neoclassical transport.
