Towards continuum gyrokinetic study of high-field mirrors
Manaure Francisquez, Maxwell H. Rosen, Noah R. Mandell +3
High-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnetic mirrors under development exploit strong fields with high mirror ratio to compress loss cones and enhance confinement, and may offer…
An investigation of shock formation versus shock mitigation of colliding plasma jets
Petr Cagas, James Juno, Ammar Hakim +4
This work studies the interaction between colliding plasma jets to understand regimes in which jet merging results in shock formation versus regimes in which the shock formation is…
Plasma sheath studies using a physical treatment of electron emission from a dielectric wall
Kolter Bradshaw, Petr Cagas, Ammar Hakim +1
When a plasma sheath forms next to a dielectric wall, material properties determine electron absorption and reflection from the surface, impacting the sheath formation and structur…
Kinetic modeling of neutral transport for a continuum gyrokinetic code
T. N. Bernard, F. D. Halpern, M. Francisquez +6
We present the first-of-its-kind coupling of a continuum full-f gyrokinetic turbulence model with a 6D continuum model for kinetic neutrals, carried out using the Gkeyll code. Our…
Reduction of transport due to magnetic shear in gyrokinetic simulations of the scrape-off layer
N. R. Mandell, G. W. Hammett, A. Hakim +1
The effect of varying magnetic shear on scrape-off layer turbulence and profiles is studied via electromagnetic gyrokinetic simulations of a helical scrape-off layer model. We deve…
Turbulent broadening of electron heat-flux width in electromagnetic gyrokinetic simulations of a helical scrape-off layer model
N. R. Mandell, G. W. Hammett, A. Hakim +1
We demonstrate that cross-field transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL) can be moderately increased by electromagnetic effects in high-beta regimes, resulting in a broader electron…
