Multilevel Monte Carlo simulation of Coulomb collisions
M. S. Rosin, L. F. Ricketson, A. M. Dimits +2
We present a new, for plasma physics, highly efficient multilevel Monte Carlo numerical method for simulating Coulomb collisions. The method separates and optimally minimizes the f…
An entropy based thermalization scheme for hybrid simulations of Coulomb collisions
L. F. Ricketson, M. S. Rosin, R. E. Caflisch +1
We formulate and test a hybrid fluid-Monte Carlo scheme for the treatment of elastic collisions in gases and plasmas. While our primary focus and demonstrations of applicability ar…
Stability and energetics of Bursian diodes
M. S. Rosin, H. Sun
We present an analysis of the stability, energy and torque properties of a model Bursian diode in a one dimensional Eulerian framework using the cold Euler-Poisson fluid equations.…
Global MRI with Braginskii viscosity in a galactic profile
M. S. Rosin, A. J. Mestel
We present a global-in-radius linear analysis of the axisymmetric magnetorotational instability (MRI) in a collisional magnetized plasma with Braginskii viscosity. For a galactic a…
Beyond the Child-Langmuir Limit
R. E. Caflisch, M. S. Rosin
This paper describes a new solution formulation for fully nonlinear and unsteady planar flow of an electron beam in a diode. Using characteristic variables - i.e., variables that f…
A nonlinear theory of the parallel firehose and gyrothermal instabilities in a weakly collisional plasma
M. S. Rosin, A. A. Schekochihin, F. Rincon +1
Weakly collisional plasmas dynamically develop pressure anisotropies with respect to the magnetic field. These anisotropies trigger plasma instabilities at scales just above the io…
