Nonlinear generation of global zonal structures in gyrokinetic simulations of TCV and ASDEX Upgrade magnetic configurations
I. Novikau, A. Biancalani, A. Bottino +6
In tokamaks, turbulence is responsible not only for the anomalous transport of heat and particles from the core to the edge, which reduces heating efficiency, but also for the gene…
Nonlinear dynamics of energetic-particle driven geodesic acoustic modes in ASDEX Upgrade
I. Novikau, A. Biancalani, A. Bottino +9
Turbulence in tokamaks generates radially sheared zonal flows. Their oscillatory counterparts, geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs), appear due to the action of the magnetic field curvat…
Collisional gyrokinetic full-f particle-in-cell simulations on open field lines with PICLS
Mathias Boesl, Andreas Bergmann, Alberto Bottino +3
Applying gyrokinetic simulations for theoretical turbulence and transport studies to the plasma edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) presents significant challenges. To in particular ac…
Gyrokinetic full-f particle-in-cell simulations on open field lines with PICLS
Mathias Helmut Boesl, Andreas Bergmann, Alberto Bottino +4
While in recent years, gyrokinetic simulations have become the workhorse for theoretical turbulence and transport studies in the plasma core, their application to the edge and scra…
ORB5: a global electromagnetic gyrokinetic code using the PIC approach in toroidal geometry
E. Lanti, N. Ohana, N. Tronko +20
This paper presents the current state of the global gyrokinetic code ORB5 as an update of the previous reference [Jolliet et al., Comp. Phys. Commun. 177 409 (2007)]. The ORB5 code…
First principles gyrokinetic analysis of electromagnetic plasma instabilities
Natalia Tronko, Alberto Bottino, Cristel Chandre +5
A two-fold analysis of electromagnetic core tokamak instabilities in the framework of the gyrokinetic theory is presented. First principle theoretical foundations of the gyrokineti…
