Kinetic heating by Alfvén waves in magnetic shears
Fabio Bacchini, Francesco Pucci, Francesco Malara +1
With first-principles kinetic simulations, we show that a large-scale Alfvén wave (AW) propagating in an inhomogeneous background decays into kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs), triggerin…
Energy-selective confinement of fusion-born alpha particles during internal relaxations in a tokamak plasma
Andreas Bierwage, Kouji Shinohara, Yevgen Kazakov +9
Long-pulse operation of a self-sustained fusion reactor using toroidal magnetic containment requires control over the content of alpha particles produced by D-T fusion reactions. O…
A possible link between turbulence and plasma heating
Emiliya Yordanova, Zoltán Vörös, Luca Sorriso-Valvo +2
Numerical simulations and experimental results have shown that current sheets formation in space plasmas can be associated with enhanced vorticity. Also, in simulations the generat…
Nature of electrostatic fluctuations in the terrestrial magnetosheath
Silvia Perri, Denise Perrone, Owen Roberts +5
The high cadence plasma, electric, and magnetic field measurements by the Magnetospheric MultiScale spacecraft allow us to explore the near-Earth space plasma with an unprecedented…
CH reforming with CO in a nanosecond pulsed discharge. The importance of the pulse sequence
Cesare Montesano, Marzia Faedda, Luca Matteo Martini +2
The plasma dry reforming reaction of methane with carbon dioxide is investigated in a nanosecond repetitively pulsed discharge, a type of plasma that offers one of the highest non-…
New plasma regimes with small ELMs and high confinement at the Joint European Torus
J. Garcia, E. de la Luna, M. Sertoli +15
New plasma regimes with high confinement, low core impurity accumulation and small Edge localized mode (ELMs) perturbations have been obtained close to ITER conditions in magnetica…
Dissipation measures in weakly-collisional plasmas
O. Pezzi, H. Liang, J. L. Juno +8
The physical foundations of the dissipation of energy and the associated heating in weakly collisional plasmas are poorly understood. Here, we compare and contrast several measures…
Bridging hybrid- and full-kinetic models with Landau-fluid electrons: I. 2D magnetic reconnection
Francesco Finelli, Silvio S. Cerri, Francesco Califano +4
Magnetic reconnection (MR) plays a fundamental role in plasma dynamics under many different conditions, from space and astrophysical environments to laboratory devices. High-resolu…
