Multiscale Gyrokinetics for Rotating Tokamak Plasmas: Fluctuations, Transport and Energy Flows
I. G. Abel, G. G. Plunk, E. Wang +4
This paper presents a complete theoretical framework for plasma turbulence and transport in tokamak plasmas. The fundamental scale separations present in plasma turbulence are codi…
Freely decaying turbulence in two-dimensional electrostatic gyrokinetics
T. Tatsuno, G. G. Plunk, M. Barnes +3
In magnetized plasmas, a turbulent cascade occurs in phase space at scales smaller than the thermal Larmor radius ("sub-Larmor scales") [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 015003 (2009)]. When…
Landau Damping in a Turbulent Setting
G. G. Plunk
To address the problem of Landau damping in kinetic turbulence, the forcing of the linearized Vlasov equation by a stationary random source is considered. It is found that the time…
Considering Fluctuation Energy as a Measure of Gyrokinetic Turbulence
G. G. Plunk, T. Tatsuno, W. Dorland
In gyrokinetic theory there are two quadratic measures of fluctuation energy, left invariant under nonlinear interactions, that constrain the turbulence. The recent work of Plunk a…
