Verification of a Fully Implicit Particle-in-Cell Method for the Formalism of Electromagnetic Gyrokinetics in the XGC Code
Benjamin J. Sturdevant, S. Ku, L. Chacón +8
A fully implicit particle-in-cell method for handling the -formalism of electromagnetic gyrokinetics has been implemented in XGC. By choosing the -formali…
Gyrokinetics investigations of an I-mode pedestal on Alcator C-Mod
Xing Liu, M. Kotschenreuther, D. R. Hatch +3
Naturally stable to ELMs, and with widths larger than EPED predictions, the I-modes are an excellent laboratory for investigating the role of drift micro-instabilities in pedestals…
Toroidal and slab ETG instability dominance in the linear spectrum of JET-ILW pedestals
Jason F. Parisi, Felix I. Parra, Colin M. Roach +9
Local linear gyrokinetic simulations show that electron temperature gradient (ETG) instabilities are the fastest growing modes for in the steep gradient regio…
Global scaling of the heat transport in fusion plasmas
Sara Moradi, Johan Anderson, Michele Romanelli +2
A global heat flux model based on a fractional derivative of plasma pressure is proposed for the heat transport in fusion plasmas. The degree of the fractional derivative of the he…
Transition from weak to strong turbulence in magnetized plasmas
Vasil Bratanov, Swadesh Mahajan, David Hatch
The scaling of turbulent heat flux with respect to electrostatic potential is examined in the framework of a reduced (D) kinetic system describing electrostatic turbulence in ma…
Plasma turbulence in the equatorial electrojet: A two-dimensional Hamiltonian fluid model
Ehab Hassan, I. Keramidas Charidakos, P. J. Morrison +2
A nonlinear unified fluid model that describes the Equatorial Electrojet, including the Farley-Buneman and gradient-drift plasma instabilities, is defined and shown to be a noncano…
