Modeling Temperature Profiles in the Pedestal of NSTX with Reduced Models
P. -Y. Li, D. R. Hatch, L. A. Leppin +5
This paper describes new modeling capabilities for predicting H-mode pedestal profiles in spherical tokamaks. Temperature profiles for NSTX discharges 132543 and 132588 are modeled…
Hall MHD waves: A fundamental departure from their MHD counterparts
Swadesh M. Mahajan, Prerana Sharma, Manasvi Lingam
It is demonstrated through a succinct derivation as to how the linear waves in Hall magnetohydrodynamics (HMHD) constitute a fundamental departure from the standard MHD waves. Apar…
Nonlinear Coupling of Electromagnetic and Electron Acoustic Waves in Multi-Species Degenerate Astrophysical Plasma
N. L. Shatashvili, S. M. Mahajan, V. I. Berezhiani
Nonlinear wave--coupling is studied in a multi-species degenerate astrophysical plasma consisting of two electron species (at different temperatures): a highly degenerate main comp…
Stable Optical Vortex Solitons in Pair Plasmas
V. I. Berezhiani, S. M. Mahajan, N. L. Shatashvili
It is shown that the pair plasmas with small temperature asymmetry can support existence of localized as well as de-localized optical vortex solitons. Coexistence of such solitons…
Self-trapping of strong electromagnetic beams in relativistic plasmas
V. I. Berezhiani, S. M. Mahajan, Z. Yoshida +1
Interaction of an intense electromagnetic (EM) beam with hot relativistic plasma is investigated. It is shown that the thermal pressure brings about a fundamental change in the dyn…
