Resonant theory of kinetic ballooning modes in general toroidal geometry

P. Mulholland, A. Zocco, M. C. L. Morren +4

The linear theory of the kinetic-ballooning-mode (KBM) instability is extended to capture a weakly-driven regime in general toroidal geometry where the destabilization is caused by…

Influence of collisions on trapped-electron modes in tokamaks and low-shear stellarators

M. C. L. Morren, J. H. E. Proll, J. van Dijk +1

The influence of collisions on the growth rate of trapped-electron modes (TEMs) in core plasmas is assessed through both analytical linear gyrokinetics and linear gyrokinetic simul…

Available energy of trapped electrons in Miller tokamak equilibria

R. J. J. Mackenbach, J. H. E. Proll, G. Snoep +1

Available energy (Æ), which quantifies the maximum amount of thermal energy that may be liberated and converted into instabilities and turbulence, has shown to be a useful metric f…

Enhanced transport at high plasma pressure and sub-threshold kinetic ballooning modes in Wendelstein 7-X

P. Mulholland, K. Aleynikova, B. J. Faber +5

High-performance fusion plasmas, requiring high pressure , are not well-understood in stellarator-type experiments. Here, the effect of on ion-temperature-gradient-driven (I…

Bounce-averaged drifts: Equivalent definitions, numerical implementations, and example cases

R. J. J. Mackenbach, J. M. Duff, M. J. Gerard +3

In this article we provide various analytical and numerical methods for calculating the average drift of magnetically trapped particles across field lines in complex geometries, an…

The available energy of trapped electrons and its relation to turbulent transport

R. J. J. Mackenbach, J. H. E. Proll, P. Helander

A collisionless plasma possesses a certain amount of "available energy", which is that part of the thermal energy that can be converted into field energy. Here, a calculation is pr…
