Analytical study on magnetic component of geodesic acoustic mode

Baoyi Xie, Lei Ye, Yang Chen +3

The magnetic components of geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) are analytically investigated under the gyrokinetic framework with both the m=1 and m=2 harmonics are considered, where m is…

Gyrokinetic simulations of electric current generation in ion temperature gradient driven turbulence

Xiang Chen, Zhixin Lu, Huishan Cai +3

Gyrokinetic simulations in the collisionless limit demonstrate the physical mechanisms and the amplitude of the current driven by turbulence. Simulation results show the spatio-tem…

Verification of long wavelength electromagnetic modes with a gyrokinetic-fluid hybrid model in the XGC code

Robert Hager, Jianying Lang, Choong-Seock Chang +4

As an alternative option to kinetic electrons, the gyrokinetic total-f particle-in-cell (PIC) code XGC1 has been extended to the MHD/fluid type electromagnetic regime by combining…

Global Gyrokinetic Simulation of Tokamak Edge Pedestal Instabilities

Weigang Wan, Scott E. Parker, Yang Chen +3

Global electromagnetic gyrokinetic simulations show the existence of near threshold conditions for both a high- kinetic ballooning mode (KBM) and an intermediate- kinetic ver…

Natural Fueling of a Tokamak Fusion Reactor

Weigang Wan, Scott E. Parker, Yang Chen +1

A natural fueling mechanism that helps to maintain the main core deuterium and tritium (DT) density profiles in a tokamak fusion reactor is discussed. In H-mode plasmas dominated b…
