Global gyrokinetic particle-in-cell simulations of internal kink instabilities

Alexey Mishchenko, Alessandro Zocco

Internal kink instabilities have been studied in straight tokamak geometry employing an electromagnetic gyrokinetic particle-in-cell (PIC) code. The ideal-MHD internal kink mode an…

Improved Criterion for Sawtooth Trigger and Modelling

A. Zocco, J. W. Connor, C. G. Gimblett +1

We discuss the role of neoclassical resistivity and local magnetic shear in the triggering of the sawtooth in tokamaks. When collisional detrapping of electrons is considered the v…

Ion Landau Damping on Drift Tearing Modes

J. W. Connor, R. J. Hastie, A. Zocco

Kinetic treatments of drift-tearing modes that match an inner resonant layer solution to an external MHD region solution, characterised by , fail to properly match the…
