Island formation in collisionless kinetic plasmas with perturbed orbits

Benjamin J. Q. Woods

In the vinicity of phase-space resonances for a given species of plasma, the particle distribution function is flattened as free energy is exchanged between the plasma and resonant…

Analytical solutions for nonlinear plasma waves with time-varying complex frequency

Benjamin J. Q. Woods

Bernstein-Kruskal-Greene (or BGK) modes are ubiquitous nonlinear solutions for the 1D electrostatic Vlasov equation, with the particle distribution function given as a function…

Machine learning characterisation of Alfvénic and sub-Alfvénic chirping and correlation with fast ion loss at NSTX

Benjamin J. Q. Woods, Vinícius N. Duarte, Eric D. Fredrickson +3

Abrupt large events in the Alfvénic and sub-Alfvénic frequency bands in tokamaks are typically correlated with increased fast ion loss. Here, machine learning is used to speed up t…

Fast post-hoc method for updating moments of large datasets

Benjamin J. Q. Woods

Moments of large datasets utilise the mean of the dataset; consequently, updating the dataset traditionally requires one to update the mean, which then requires one to recalculate…

Stochastic effects on phase-space holes and clumps in kinetic systems near marginal stability

Benjamin J. Q. Woods, Vinicius N. Duarte, Anthony P. De-Gol +2

The creation and subsequent evolution of marginally-unstable modes have been observed in a wide range of fusion devices. This behaviour has been successfully explained, for a singl…
