Stability of scrape-off layer plasma: a modified Rayleigh-Benard problem
Fryderyk Wilczynski, David W. Hughes, Sven Van Loo +2
We present a linear stability analysis of a two-dimensional fluid model used to study the plasma dynamics in the scrape-off layer of tokamaks. The model equations are based on the…

A Self-Consistent Treatment of the Electromotive Force in Magnetohydrodynamics for Large Diffusivities
A. Courvoisier, D. W. Hughes, M. R. E. Proctor
The coupled equations that describe the effect of large-scale magnetic and velocity fields on forced high-diffusivity magnetohydrodynamic flows are investigated through an extensio…

Problems with kinematic mean field electrodynamics at high magnetic Reynolds numbers
F. Cattaneo, D. W. Hughes
We discuss the applicability of the kinematic -effect formalism at high magnetic Reynolds numbers. In this regime the underlying flow is likely to be a small-scale dynamo, leadi…
