Up-down symmetry breaking in global tokamak edge simulations

In global tokamak edge simulations, plasma density and temperature are found to be poloidally asymmetric despite the (nearly) symmetric geometry and boundary conditions. In particular, in the closed flux region, the ion temperature tends to be higher at the bottom, that is, in the direction of the i...
