Microtearing modes as the source of magnetic fluctuations in the JET pedestal
D. R. Hatch, M. Kotschenreuther, S. M. Mahajan +15
We report on a detailed study of magnetic fluctuations in the JET pedestal, employing basic theoretical considerations, gyrokinetic simulations, and experimental fluctuation data,…
Nonlinear symmetry breaking in electron temperature gradient driven turbulence
Salomon Janhunen, Gabriele Merlo, Frank Jenko +3
Nonlinear symmetry breaking may occur in systems with two or more states whose linear dynamics displays certain symmetries, one of which is preferred nonlinearly. We have identifie…
Global gyrokinetic simulations of ITG turbulence in the configuration space of the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator
A. Bañón Navarro, G. Merlo, G. G. Plunk +7
We study the effect of turbulent transport in different magnetic configurations of the Weldenstein 7-X stellarator. In particular, we performed direct numerical simulations with th…
How eigenmode self-interaction affects zonal flows and convergence of tokamak core turbulence with toroidal system size
Ajay C. J., Stephan Brunner, Ben McMillan +3
Self-interaction is the process by which a microturbulence eigenmode that is extended along the direction parallel to the magnetic field interacts with itself non-linearly. This ef…
