Observation of an Alfvén Wave Parametric Instability in a Laboratory Plasma
S. Dorfman, T. A. Carter
A shear Alfvén wave parametric instability is observed for the first time in the laboratory. When a single finite kinetic Alfvén wave (KAW) is launched in the Large Plasma…
A Linear Technique to Understand Non-Normal Turbulence Applied to a Magnetized Plasma
Brett Friedman, Troy A. Carter
In nonlinear dynamical systems with highly nonorthogonal linear eigenvectors, linear non-modal analysis is more useful than normal mode analysis in predicting turbulent properties.…
Nonlinear instability in simulations of Large Plasma Device turbulence
B. Friedman, T. A. Carter, M. V. Umansky +2
Several simulations of turbulence in the Large Plasma Device (LAPD) [W. Gekelman et al., Rev. Sci. Inst. 62, 2875 (1991)] are energetically analyzed and compared with each other an…
Modification of turbulent transport with continuous variation of flow shear in the Large Plasma Device
D. A. Schaffner, T. A. Carter, G. D. Rossi +4
Continuous control over azimuthal flow and shear in the edge of the Large Plasma Device (LAPD) has been achieved using a biasable limiter which has allowed a careful study of the e…
Energy dynamics in a simulation of LAPD turbulence
B. Friedman, T. A. Carter, M. V. Umansky +2
Energy dynamics calculations in a 3D fluid simulation of drift wave turbulence in the linear Large Plasma Device (LAPD) [W. Gekelman et al., Rev. Sci. Inst. 62, 2875 (1991)] illumi…
Modeling of plasma turbulence and transport in the Large Plasma Device
P. Popovich, M. V. Umansky, T. A. Carter +1
Numerical simulation of plasma turbulence in the Large Plasma Device (LAPD) [Gekelman et al, Rev. Sci. Inst., 62, 2875, 1991] is presented. The model, implemented in the BOUndary T…
