FACIT -- Generalize ICRH effects #87

Open cjperks7 opened 1 year ago

I can do this one too

Issue

The formula used in FACIT for the ICRH effects on poloidal asymmetry assumes just D(H) minority heating. Future fusion devices (SPARC) will use other schemes such as D(He3), D/T(He3).

Plan of action

In the original derivation by M. Reinke, they obtained a general expression and then specified it to D(H) which was grabbed for use it FACIT. Pretty straight forward to change that to account for other schemes.

Of interest for @DanielFajardoJ

This would be a good improvement for ICRH applications, thanks @cjperks7
