Effects of magnetic drift tangential to magnetic surfaces on neoclassical transport in non-axisymmetric plasmas
Seikichi Matsuoka, Shinsuke Satake, Ryutaro Kanno +1
In evaluating neoclassical transport by radially-local simulations, the magnetic drift tangential to a flux surface is usually ignored in order to keep the phase-space volume conse…
Novel Aspects of Direct Laser Acceleration of Relativistic Electrons
A. V. Arefiev, A. P. L. Robinson, V. N. Khudik
We examine the impact of several factors on electron acceleration by a laser pulse and the resulting electron energy gain. Specifically, we consider the role played by: 1) static l…
Kinetic Electron and Ion Instability of the Lunar Wake Simulated at Physical Mass Ratio
Christian Bernt Haakonsen, Ian H. Hutchinson, Chuteng Zhou
The solar wind wake behind the moon is studied with 1D electrostatic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations using a physical ion to electron mass ratio (unlike prior investigations); t…
Extended theory of the Taylor problem in the plasmoid-unstable regime
Luca Comisso, Daniela Grasso, François L. Waelbroeck
A fundamental problem of forced magnetic reconnection has been solved taking into account the plasmoid instability of thin reconnecting current sheets. In this problem, the reconne…
Non-linear Plasma Wake Growth of Electron Holes
I. H. Hutchinson, C. B. Haakonsen, C. Zhou
An object's wake in a plasma with small Debye length that drifts \emph{across} the magnetic field is subject to electrostatic electron instabilities. Such situations include, for e…
