Turbulent Thermal Equilibration of Collisionless Magnetospheric Plasmas
Ryusuke Numata
How thermal equilibrium is determined in a weakly collisional plasma is a fundamental question in plasma physics. This letter shows that the turbulence driven by the magnetic curva…
Investigation of the collisionless plasmoid instability based on gyrofluid and gyrokinetic integrated approach
C. Granier, R. Numata, D. Borgogno +2
In this work, the development of two-dimensional current sheets with respect to tearing-modes, in collisionless plasmas with a strong guide field, is analysed. During their non-lin…
Destabilization mechanism of the collisional microtearing mode in magnetized slab plasmas
Mitsuyoshi Yagyu, Ryusuke Numata
The destabilization mechanism of the collisional microtearing mode driven by an electron temperature gradient is studied using theoretical analyses and gyrokinetic simulations incl…
Marginally Stable Current Sheets in Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection
Camille Granier, Dario Borgogno, Luca Comisso +3
Non-collisional current sheets that form during the nonlinear development of magnetic reconnection are characterized by a small thickness, of the order of the electron skin depth.…
Random forcing with a constant power input for two-dimensional gyrokinetic simulations
Ryusuke Numata
A method of random forcing with a constant power input for two-dimensional gyrokinetic turbulence simulations is developed for the study of stationary plasma turbulence. The proper…
Kinetic microtearing modes and reconnecting modes in strongly magnetised slab plasmas
A Zocco, N F Loureiro, D Dickinson +2
The problem of the linear microtearing mode in a slab magnetised plasma, and its connection to kinetic reconnecting modes, is addressed. Electrons are described using a novel hybri…
