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…
Mapped discontinuous Galerkin interpolations and sheared boundary conditions
Manaure Francisquez, Noah R. Mandell, Ammar Hakim +1
Translations or, more generally, coordinate transformations of scalar fields arise in several applications, such as weather, accretion disk and magnetized plasma turbulence modelin…
A Field-Particle Correlation Analysis of a Perpendicular Magnetized Collisionless Shock
James Juno, Gregory G. Howes, Jason M. TenBarge +5
Using the field-particle correlation technique, we examine the particle energization in a 1D-2V continuum Vlasov--Maxwell simulation of a perpendicular magnetized collisionless sho…
A boundary value "reservoir problem" and boundary conditions for multi-moment multifluid simulations of sheaths
Petr Cagas, Ammar Hakim, Bhuvana Srinivasan
Multifluid simulations of plasma sheaths are increasingly used to model a wide variety of problems in plasma physics ranging from global magnetospheric flows around celestial bodie…
Investigating shear flow through continuum gyrokinetic simulations of limiter biasing in the Texas Helimak
Tess N. Bernard, Timothy Stoltzfus-Dueck, Kenneth W. Gentle +3
Previous limiter-biasing experiments on the Texas Helimak, a simple magnetized torus, have been inconclusive on the effect of flow shear on turbulence levels. To investigate this,…
Fluid & Gyrokinetic turbulence in open field-line, helical plasmas
Manaure Francisquez, Tess N. Bernard, Ben Zhu +3
Two-fluid Braginskii codes have simulated open-field line turbulence for over a decade, and only recently has it become possible to study these systems with continuum gyrokinetic c…
