What metric to optimize for suppressing instability in a Vlasov-Poisson system?
Martin Guerra, Qin Li, Yukun Yue +1
Stabilizing plasma dynamics is a central challenge in magnetic confinement fusion. A common approach is to introduce external electric fields to suppress instabilities in the plasm…
Control of a Uniformly Magnetized Plasma with External Electric Fields
Peiyi Chen, Rogerio Jorge, Qin Li +1
Stabilizing plasma dynamics through externally applied electric and magnetic fields is a fundamental control problem. We study this question for a plasma evolving under a uniform e…
Control of kinetic plasma instabilities by laser fields
Nicolas Crouseilles, Lukas Einkemmer, Qin Li +2
We study the possibility of controlling kinetic plasma instabilities by using lasers to apply external electromagnetic fields. We derive the dispersion relation for the correspondi…
Control of Instability in a Vlasov-Poisson System Through an External Electric Field
Lukas Einkemmer, Qin Li, Clément Mouhot +1
Plasma instabilities are a major concern in plasma science, for applications ranging from particle accelerators to nuclear fusion reactors. In this work, we consider the possibilit…
