Saturation of fishbone instability by self-generated zonal flows in tokamak plasmas
G. Brochard, C. Liu, X. Wei +13
Gyrokinetic simulations of the fishbone instability in DIII-D tokamak plasmas find that self-generated zonal flows can dominate the nonlinear saturation by preventing coherent stru…

The impact of anisotropy on ITER scenarios
M. J. Hole, Z. Qu, S. Pinches +4
We report on the impact of anisotropy to tokamak plasma configuration and stability. Our focus is on analysis of the impact of anisotropy on ITER pre-fusion power operation 5~MA, $…

Non-Maxwellian fast particle effects in gyrokinetic GENE simulations
A. Di Siena, T. Görler, H. Doerk +6
Fast ions have recently been found to significantly impact and partially suppress plasma turbulence both in experimental and numerical studies in a number of scenarios. Understandi…
