Linear Gyrokinetic Simulations of Micro-tearing Mode: Local versus Global
Yifei Liu, Haotian Chen, Yao Yao +3
A systematic comparison of local and global linear gyrokinetic simulations of micro-tearing modes (MTMs) is performed using the GENE code. The analysis spans diverse plasma paramet…
Implicit discretization schemes for full-kinetic ion and drift-kinetic electron simulations
Zilong Li, Yang Chen, Haotian Chen +3
We present a new electromagnetic plasma simulation model with full-kinetic ions and drift-kinetic electrons. This model (termed as FIDES) solves the electric field using the implic…
Discovery of Density Limit Disruption Induced by Core-localized Alfvnic Ion Temperature Gradient Instabilities in a Tokamak Plasma
Wei Chen, Liwen Hu, Jianqiang Xu +17
To achieve a high energy gain, the fusion reactor plasma must reach a very high density. However, the tokamak plasmas ofen undergo disruption when the density exceeds the Greenwald…
A kinetic CMA diagram
Zilong Li, Haotian Chen, Zhe Gao +1
We present a kinetic Clemmow-Mullaly-Allis (CMA) diagram by systematically analysing the kinetic effects on the wave propagation in a homogeneous thermal plasma. The differences be…
