Direct multiscale coupling of a transport code to gyrokinetic turbulence codes
M. Barnes, I. G. Abel, W. Dorland +3
Direct coupling between a transport solver and local, nonlinear gyrokinetic calculations using the multiscale gyrokinetic code TRINITY [M. Barnes, Ph.D. thesis, arxiv:0901.2868] is…
Resonant Excitation of Shear Alfvén Perturbations by Trapped Energetic Ions in a Tokamak
I. G. Abel, B. N. Breizman, S. E. Sharapov +1
A new analytic expression is derived for the resonant drive of high n Alfvenic modes by particles accelerated to high energy by Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating. This derivation inc…
Observation of confined current ribbon in JET plasmas
E. R. Solano, P. J. Lomas, B. Alper +29
we report the identification of a localised current structure inside the JET plasma. It is a field aligned closed helical ribbon, carrying current in the same direction as the back…
Resolving velocity space dynamics in continuum gyrokinetics
Michael Barnes, William Dorland, Tomoya Tatsuno
Many plasmas of interest to the astrophysical and fusion communities are weakly collisional. In such plasmas, small scales can develop in the distribution of particle velocities, p…
Two-dimensional gyrokinetic turbulence
G. G. Plunk, S. C. Cowley, A. A. Schekochihin +1
Two-dimensional gyrokinetics is a simple paradigm for the study of kinetic magnetised plasma turbulence. In this paper, we present a comprehensive theoretical framework for this tu…
Effect of current corrugations on the stability of the tearing mode
F. Militello, M. Romanelli, R. J. Hastie +1
The generation of zonal magnetic fields in laboratory fusion plasmas is predicted by theoretical and numerical models and was recently observed experimentally. It is shown that the…
