Observation of explosive collisionless reconnection in 3D nonlinear gyrofluid simulations
Alessandro Biancalani, Bruce D. Scott
The nonlinear dynamics of collisionless reconnecting modes is investigated, in the framework of a three-dimensional gyrofluid model. This is the relevant regime of high-temperature…
Influence of temperature fluctuations on plasma turbulence investigations with Langmuir probes
B. Nold, T. T. Ribeiro, M. Ramisch +5
The reliability of Langmuir probe measurements for plasma-turbulence investigations is studied on GEMR gyro-fluid simulations and compared with results from conditionally sampled I…
On the dynamics of vortex modes within magnetic islands
William Hornsby, Arthur Peeters, Mattia Siccinio +1
Recent work investigating the interaction of magnetic islands with micro-turbulence has uncovered the striking observation of large scale vortex modes forming within the island str…
Dynamic Procedure for Filtered Gyrokinetic Simulations
Pierre Morel, Alejandro Bañón Navarro, Michel Albrecht-Marc +4
Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of gyrokinetic plasma turbulence are investigated as interesting candidates to decrease the computational cost. A dynamic procedure is implemented in t…
Transport-driven toroidal rotation in the tokamak edge
T. Stoltzfus-Dueck
The interaction of passing-ion drift orbits with spatially-inhomogeneous but purely diffusive radial transport is demonstrated to cause spontaneous toroidal spin-up to experimental…
Calculation of the bootstrap current profile for the TJ-II stellarator
J. L. Velasco, K. Allmaier, A. Lopez-Fraguas +5
Calculations of the bootstrap current for the TJ-II stellarator are presented. DKES and NEO-MC codes are employed; the latter has allowed, for the first time, the precise computati…
