We present the solution of the kinetic equation describing the quasi-linear evolution of the electron momentum distribution function under the influence of the electron cyclotron wave absorption, Coulomb collisions and the dc electric field in a tokamak plasma. The solution of the quasi-linear equat
The finite element library PDE-PROTRAN is applied for the numerical solution of a quasilinear two-dimensional Fokker-Planck equation to study the cross-effect of electron cyclotron heating and lower-hybrid current drive in tokamak plasmas. Results show that the current drive efficiency of EC waves i
