Gyrokinetic investigation of toroidal Alfven eigenmode (TAE) turbulence
Ajay C. J., Ben McMillan, Arkaprava Bokshi +3
Toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) can transport fusion-born energetic particles out of the plasma volume, thereby decreasing plasma self-heating efficiency and possibly damaging re…

Effect of In-Plane Shear Flow on the Magnetic Island Coalescence Instability
Jagannath Mahapatra, Arkaprava Bokshi, Rajaraman Ganesh +1
Using a 2D Viscoresistive Reduced MagnetoHydroDynamic (VR-RMHD) model, the magnetic island coalescence problem is studied in the presence of in-plane, parallel shear flows. Extendi…
