A Community Plan for Fusion Energy and Discovery Plasma Sciences
Scott Baalrud, Nathaniel Ferraro, Lauren Garrison +4
This document is the final report of the Community Planning Process (CPP) that describes a comprehensive plan to deliver fusion energy and to advance plasma science. The CPP was in…
Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena in Solar and Heliospheric Plasmas
H. Ji, J. Karpen, A. Alt +105
Magnetic reconnection underlies many explosive phenomena in the heliosphere and in laboratory plasmas. The new research capabilities in theory/simulations, observations, and labora…
Friction Force in Strongly Magnetized Plasmas
David J. Bernstein, Trevor Lafleur, Jerome Daligault +1
A charged particle moving through a plasma experiences a friction force that commonly acts antiparallel to its velocity. It was recently predicted that in strongly magnetized plasm…
A Generalized Boltzmann Kinetic Theory for Strongly Magnetized Plasmas with Application to Friction
Louis Jose, Scott D. Baalrud
Coulomb collisions in plasmas are typically modeled using the Boltzmann collision operator, or its variants, which apply to weakly magnetized plasmas in which the typical gyroradiu…
Viscosity of the magnetized strongly coupled one-component plasma
Brett Scheiner, Scott Baalrud
The viscosity tensor of the magnetized one-component plasma, consisting of five independent shear viscosity coefficients, a bulk viscosity coefficient, and a cross coefficient, is…
Review of the First Charged-Particle Transport Coefficient Comparison Workshop
P. E. Grabowski, S. B. Hansen, M. S. Murillo +42
We present the results of the first Charged-Particle Transport Coefficient Code Comparison Workshop, which was held in Albuquerque, NM October 4-6, 2016. In this first workshop, sc…
Diffusion coefficients in the envelopes of white dwarfs
R. A. Heinonen, D. Saumon, J. Daligault +3
The diffusion of elements is a key process in understanding the unusual surface composition of white dwarfs stars and their spectral evolution. The diffusion coefficients of Paquet…
Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena throughout the Universe
H. Ji, A. Alt, S. Antiochos +97
This white paper summarizes major scientific challenges and opportunities in understanding magnetic reconnection and related explosive phenomena as a fundamental plasma process.
Quantum Mean-Force Kinetic Theory: General Formulation and Application to Electron-Ion Transport in Warm Dense Matter
Shane Rightley, Scott D. Baalrud
We present an approach to extend plasma transport theory into the Warm Dense Matter (WDM) regime characterized by moderate Coulomb coupling and electron degeneracy. It is based on…
