Numerical simulations of the Princeton magneto-rotational instability experiment with conducting axial boundaries

Xing Wei, Hantao Ji, Jeremy Goodman +4

We investigate numerically the Princeton magneto-rotational instability (MRI) experiment and the effect of conducting axial boundaries or endcaps. MRI is identified and found to re…

Dynamo-driven plasmoid formation from a current-sheet instability

F. Ebrahimi

Axisymmetric current-carrying plasmoids are formed in the presence of nonaxisymmetric fluctuations during nonlinear three-dimensional resistive MHD simulations in a global toroidal…

Continuum Kinetic and Multi-Fluid Simulations of Classical Sheaths

Petr Cagas, Ammar Hakim, James Juno +1

The kinetic study of plasma sheaths is critical, among other things, to understand the deposition of heat on walls, the effect of sputtering, and contamination of the plasma with d…

Generalized Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij Distribution and Beam Matrix for Phase-Space Manipulations of High-Intensity Beams

Moses Chung, Hong Qin, Ronald C. Davidson +2

In an uncoupled linear lattice system, the Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij (KV) distribution, formulated on the basis of the single-particle Courant-Snyder (CS) invariants, has served as…

Energy spectra of 3He-rich solar energetic particles associated with coronal waves

R. Bucik, D. E. Innes, G. M. Mason +1

In addition to their anomalous abundances, 3He-rich solar energetic particles (SEPs) show puzzling energy spectral shapes varying from rounded forms to power laws where the later a…

On the Value of the Reconnection Rate

Luca Comisso, Amitava Bhattacharjee

Numerical simulations have consistently shown that the reconnection rate in certain collisionless regimes can be fast, on the order of , where and are the…
