Velocity space compression from Fermi acceleration with Lorentz scattering
J. C. Waybright, M. E. Mlodik, N. J. Fisch
The Fermi acceleration model was introduced to describe how cosmic ray particles are accelerated to great speeds by interacting with moving magnetic fields. We identify a new varia…
Fusion yield of plasma with velocity-space anisotropy at constant energy
E. J. Kolmes, M. E. Mlodik, N. J. Fisch
Velocity-space anisotropy can significantly modify fusion reactivity. The nature and magnitude of this modification depends on the plasma temperature, as well as the details of how…
Generalized Impurity Pinch in Partially Magnetized Multi-Ion Plasma
M. E. Mlodik, E. J. Kolmes, I. E. Ochs +1
In a two-ion-species plasma with disparate ion masses, heavy ions tend to concentrate in the low-temperature region of collisionally magnetized plasma and in the high-temperature r…
Natural Hot Ion Modes in a Rotating Plasma
E. J. Kolmes, I. E. Ochs, M. E. Mlodik +1
In steady state, the fuel cycle of a fusion plasma requires inward particle fluxes of fuel ions. These particle flows are also accompanied by heating. In the case of classical tran…
