Turbulent Transport in Tokamak-plasmas: A Thermodynamic Approach

Giorgio Sonnino, Philippe Peeters, Pasquale Nardone +1

In previous work we provided the explicit form of the nonlinear PDEs, subjected to the appropriate boundary conditions, which have to be satisfied by transport coefficients for sys…

Modelling the Spreading of the SARS-CoV-2 in Presence of the Lockdown and Quarantine Measures by a "Kinetic-Type Reactions" Approach

Giorgio Sonnino, Philippe Peeters, Pasquale Nardone

We propose a realistic model for the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic subject to the lockdown and quarantine measures, which takes into account the time-delay for recovery or dea…

Stationary distribution functions for Tokamak-plasmas in the weak-collisional transport regime by MaxEnt principle

Giorgio Sonnino, Philippe Peeters, Alberto Sonnino +2

In previous works, we derived stationary density distribution functions (DDF) where the local equilibrium is determined by imposing the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) principle, under th…

Reference Distribution Functions for Magnetically Confined Plasmas from the Minimum Entropy Production Theorem and the MaxEnt Principle, subject to the Scale-Invariant Restrictions

Giorgio Sonnino, Alessandro Cardinali, Gyorgy Steinbrecher +3

We derive the expression of the reference distribution function for magnetically confined plasmas far from the thermodynamic equilibrium. The local equilibrium state is fixed by im…

Derivation of Reference Distribution Functions for Tokamak-plasmas by Statistical Thermodynamics

Giorgio Sonnino, Alessandro Cardinali, Philippe Peeters +2

A general approach for deriving the expression of reference distribution functions by statistical thermodynamics is illustrated, and applied to the case of a magnetically confined…

General Approach for Deriving Reference Distribution Functions for Systems out of Equilibrium by Statistical Thermodynamics

Giorgio Sonnino, Alessandro Cardinali, Mustapha Tlidi +3

A general approach for deriving the expression of reference (density of) distribution functions, F^0, by statistical thermodynamics and the definition of local equilibrium conditio…

Nonlinear Transport Processes in Tokamak Plasmas. Part I: The Collisional Regimes

Giorgio Sonnino, Philippe Peeters

An application of the thermodynamic field theory (TFT) to transport processes in L-mode tokamak plasmas is presented. The nonlinear corrections to the linear (Onsager) transport co…
