Stationary distribution functions for Tokamak-plasmas in the weak-collisional transport regime by MaxEnt principle
Giorgio Sonnino, Philippe Peeters, Alberto Sonnino +2
In previous works, we derived stationary density distribution functions (DDF) where the local equilibrium is determined by imposing the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) principle, under th…
Reference Distribution Functions for Magnetically Confined Plasmas from the Minimum Entropy Production Theorem and the MaxEnt Principle, subject to the Scale-Invariant Restrictions
Giorgio Sonnino, Alessandro Cardinali, Gyorgy Steinbrecher +3
We derive the expression of the reference distribution function for magnetically confined plasmas far from the thermodynamic equilibrium. The local equilibrium state is fixed by im…
Derivation of Reference Distribution Functions for Tokamak-plasmas by Statistical Thermodynamics
Giorgio Sonnino, Alessandro Cardinali, Philippe Peeters +2
A general approach for deriving the expression of reference distribution functions by statistical thermodynamics is illustrated, and applied to the case of a magnetically confined…
