| contents | Perturbative guiding center theory adequately describes the slow drift motion of charged particles in the strongly-magnetized regime characteristic of thermal particle populations in various magnetic fusion devices. However, it breaks down for particles with large enough energy. We report on a data-driven method for learning a non-perturbative guiding center model from full-orbit particle simulation data. We show the data-driven model significantly outperforms traditional asymptotic theory in magnetization regimes appropriate for fusion-born $α$-particles in stellarators, thus opening the door to non-perturbative guiding center calculations. |
