Gyrokinetic continuum simulations of plasma turbulence in the Texas Helimak
Tess N. Bernard, Eric L. Shi, Kenneth Gentle +4
The first gyrokinetic simulations of plasma turbulence in the Texas Helimak device, a simple magnetized torus, are presented. The device has features similar to the scrape-off laye…
Full- gyrokinetic simulation of turbulence in a helical open-field-line plasma
Eric L. Shi, Gregory W. Hammett, Timothy Stoltzfus-Dueck +1
Curvature-driven turbulence in a helical open-field-line plasma is investigated using electrostatic five-dimensional gyrokinetic continuum simulations in an all-bad-curvature helic…
Using the maximum entropy distribution to describe electrons in reconnecting current sheets
Jonathan Ng, Ammar Hakim, Amitava Bhattacharjee
Particle distributions in weakly collisional environments such as the magnetosphere have been observed to show deviations from the Maxwellian distribution. These can often be repro…
Electron Physics in 3D Two-Fluid Ten-Moment Modeling of Ganymede's Magnetosphere
Liang Wang, Kai Germaschewski, Ammar Hakim +3
We studied the role of electron physics in 3D two-fluid 10-moment simulation of the Ganymede's magnetosphere. The model captures non-ideal physics like the Hall effect, the electro…
