    Abstract : A collisionless model for fast-ion transport in a tokamak reactor is derived from first principles, and a new orbitfollowing code is developed to simulate this model. Results from the model applied on two scenarios of DT fusion plasmas, one from ITER and one from JET, are compared, and the prompt losses as well as the effects of orbit shapes are quantified; it is shown that both the prompt losses and the orbit effect on confined particles are very small in both reactors.
