Viriato: a Fourier-Hermite spectral code for strongly magnetised fluid-kinetic plasma dynamics
N. F. Loureiro, W. Dorland, L. Fazendeiro +4
We report on the algorithms and numerical methods used in Viriato, a novel fluid-kinetic code that solves two distinct sets of equations: (i) the Kinetic Reduced Electron Heating M…

Magnetic compressibility and ion-temperature-gradient-driven microinstabilities in magnetically confined plasmas
A. Zocco, P. Helander, J. W. Connor
The electromagnetic theory of the strongly driven ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) instability in magnetically confined toroidal plasmas is developed. Stabilizing and destabilizing e…
