On seed island generation and the non-linear self-consistent interaction of the tearing mode with electromagnetic gyro-kinetic turbulence
William Hornsby, Pierluigi Migliano, Rico Buchholz +4
The multi-scale interaction of self-consistently driven magnetic islands with electromagnetic turbulence is studied within the three dimensional, toroidal gyro-kinetic framework. I…
On the radial propagation of turbulence in gyro-kinetic toroidal systems
P. Migliano, R. Buchholz, S. R. Grosshauser +2
In this paper a conservation equation is derived for the radially dependent entropy in toroidal geometry using the local approximation of the gyro-kinetic framework. This equation…
The linear tearing instability in three dimensional, toroidal gyrokinetic simulations
William Hornsby, Pierluigi Migliano, Rico Bucholz +5
Linear gyro-kinetic simulations of the classical tearing mode in three-dimensional toroidal geometry were performed using the global gyro kinetic turbulence code, GKW . The results…
Effect of turbulence on electron cyclotron current drive and heating in ITER
F. J. Casson, E. Poli, C. Angioni +2
Non-linear local electromagnetic gyrokinetic turbulence simulations of the ITER standard scenario H-mode are presented for the q=3/2 and q=2 surfaces. The turbulent transport is ex…
Nonlinear seed island generation by three-dimensional electromagnetic, gyrokinetic turbulence
William Hornsby, Pierluigi Migliano, Rico Buchholz +4
Turbulence is shown to be critical to the onset and evolution of the neoclassical tearing mode, affecting both its growth and rotation. The interaction is here studied for the firs…
