title: Gyrokinetic linear instabilities and quasilinear fluxes for variations of ITER tokamak baseline parameters

description: Linear instability and quasilinear fluxes calculated with the GENE plasma microturbulence code. The input parameters correspond to variations of ITER baseline scenario parameters calculated by integrated modelling using the QuaLiKiz transport model, as described in P. Mantica et al (2019) Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion 62 014021. <br> <br> The quasilinear fluxes were calculated with a bespoke saturation rule calibrated to dedicated GENE nonlinear simulations carried out in the same ITER regime. The quasilinear flux dataset was fit with a neural network (NN) regression model, which was then used for ITER baseline integrated modelling and performance projections. Alongside the linear stability dataset, the two separate quasilinear datasets correspond to an unfiltered dataset, and a filtered and data-augmented dataset used for the NN regression. For full details, please see reference [J. Citrin et al (2023) <em>submitted to Physics of Plasmas</em>]. <br> <br> The dimensionless input and output variables correspond to the IMAS gyrokinetic IDS standards. The major radius was taken as the reference length.
