Abstract: | The study considers the estimation of transport coefficients in magnetized plasma from experimental measurements of electron
temperature. The inverse coefficient problem is stated for a system of two nonlinear parabolic equations for the electron
temperature and the magnetic field. Numerical solution of the inverse problem is used to analyze the estimation accuracy of
the coefficients in the given functional class. The role of the magnetic field equation and the ohmic heat source for coefficient
estimation is elucidated.
