Rankine-Hugoniot conditions in Q-variables: a wave-aligned formulation of MHD discontinuities
Anna Krupka, Tijs Van Hoof, Tom Van Doorsselaere
The recently developed Q-variable formalism generalises the Elsässer representation by providing a wave-aligned representation applicable to a broad class of magnetohydrodynamic di…

Plasma pressure response to non-inductive current drive in axisymmetric visco-resistive MHD steady-states
Anna Krupka, Marie-Christine Firpo
We investigate self-consistent, steady-state axisymmetric solutions of incompressible tokamak plasma using a visco-resistive magnetohydrodynamic model. A key contribution of this w…
