Counter-rotating density and current structures in a partially magnetized plasma
Pengze Xiao, Ya Zhang, Hongyu Wang +2
The first 3D kinetic simulation of a magnetron discharge reproduces the measured rotating spoke and reveals that density and current rotate in opposite directions: the spoke…
Benchmark for two-dimensional large scale coherent structures in partially magnetized ExB plasmas -- Community collaboration & lessons learned
Andrew T. Powis, Eduardo Ahedo, Alejandro Álvarez Laguna +38
Low-temperature plasmas are essential to both fundamental scientific research and critical industrial applications. As in many areas of science, numerical simulations have become a…
Ionization waves (striations) in a low-current plasma column revisited with kinetic and fluid models
J. Boeuf
A one-dimensional Particle-In-Cell Monte Carlo Collisions (PIC-MCC) method has been used to model the development and propagation of ionization waves in neon and argon positive col…
Fluid and hybrid simulations of the ionization instabilities in Hall thruster
Oleksandr Chapurin, Andrei Smolyakov, Gerjan Hagelaar +2
Low-frequency axial oscillations (5-50 kHz) stand out as a pervasive feature observed in many types of Hall thrusters. While it is widely recognized that the ionization effects pla…
Perspectives on Physics of ExB Discharges Relevant to Plasma Propulsion and Similar Technologies
Igor D. Kaganovich, Andrei Smolyakov, Yevgeny Raitses +22
This paper provides perspectives on recent progress in the understanding of the physics of devices where the external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the discharge cur…
R&D around a photoneutralizer-based NBI system (Siphore) in view of a DEMO Tokamak steady state fusion reactor
A. Simonin, Jocelyn Achard, K. Achkasov +28
Since the signature of the ITER treaty in 2006, a new research programme targeting the emergence of a new generation of Neutral Beam (NB) system for the future fusion reactor (DEMO…
