Flat-top electron velocity distributions driven by wave-particle resonant interactions

Sofia Zanelli, Silvia Perri, Martina Condoluci +6

The role of kinetic electrons in the excitation and sustainment of ion-bulk electrostatic waves in collisionless plasmas is investigated, with a focus on the physical mechanisms re…

Overview on electrical issues faced during the SPIDER experimental campaigns

Alberto Maistrello, Matteo Agostini, Marco Bigi +39

SPIDER is the full-scale prototype of the ion source of the ITER Heating Neutral Beam Injector, where negative ions of Hydrogen or Deuterium are produced by a RF generated plasma a…

A spectral method algorithm for numerical simulations of gravitational fields

Claudio Meringolo, Sergio Servidio, Pierluigi Veltri

A numerical study of the Einstein field equations, based on the 3+1 foliation of the spacetime, is presented. A pseudo-spectral technique has been employed for simulations in vacuu…

ViDA: a Vlasov-DArwin solver for plasma physics at electron scales

Oreste Pezzi, Giulia Cozzani, Francesco Califano +6

We present a Vlasov-DArwin numerical code (ViDA) specifically designed to address plasma physics problems, where small-scale high accuracy is requested even during the non linear r…
