Zonal-flow generation and saturation of electromagnetic ion-scale turbulence in tokamaks
Y. Zhang, T. Adkins, M. Barnes +5
The paper uses local gyrokinetic simulations to study how electromagnetic ion‑scale turbulence in tokamaks generates zonal flows, finding that a combined parameter β_eff = q²β_e co…

High-beta runaway transitions in a fluid model of electromagnetic ion-temperature-gradient turbulence
Y. Zhang, M. Barnes, A. A. Schekochihin +2
Gyrokinetic simulations of tokamak turbulence indicate that fluctuation levels increase abruptly and dramatically when the plasma beta exceeds a certain critical value. This increa…
