It is found that the neo-classical transport provides little contribution to the loss of tangentially injected NB fast-ions. For perpendicularly injected NB fast-ions, the neo-classical transport has more than 40% contribution to the NB fast ion loss. These results indicate that there are other loss mechanisms dominant in LHD plasmas. The charge exchange loss is one of the plausible candidates for the loss mechanism.}, title = {Analysis of NB Fast-Ion Loss Mechanisms in MHD Quiescent LHD Plasmas}, volume = {16}, year = {2021} }
