摘要：
A view of the mechanisms underlying momentum transport in fusion plasmas devices is presented. Heat and energy transport in fusion plasmas is partly due to turbulent processes having an intermittent character and presenting some universal features. The investigation of the mechanisms underlying the generation of plasma flows (via turbulence and neoclassical effects) is a key area of research to control transport in magnetically confined plasmas. Projections of ITER plasma performance require better understanding of plasma rotation.
