Statistical model for intermittent plasma edge turbulence
F. Sattin, N. Vianello
The Probability Distribution Function of plasma density fluctuations at the edge of fusion devices is known to be skewed and strongly non-Gaussian. The causes of this peculiar beha…
On the Probability distribution function of particle density at the edge of fusion devices
F. Sattin, N. Vianello, M. Valisa
The Probability Distribution Function (PDF) Pn(n) of the particle density at the edge of several magnetic fusion devices, including tokamaks, stellarators, and linear devices, is k…
An equilibrium model for RFP plasmas in the presence of resonant tearing modes with an application to particle and heat transport
P. Zanca, F. Sattin, E. Martines
The equilibrium of a finite-beta cylindrical RFP plasma in the presence of saturated-amplitude tearing modes is investigated. The singularities arising from the perturbative analys…
Superstatistics from a different perspective
F. Sattin
In this paper we elaborate on the recently proposed superstatistics formalism [C. Beck and E.G.D. Cohen, Physica A 322, 267 (2003)], used to interpret unconventional statistics. Th…
The electron capture cross section using the r-CTMC method: a review and a suggestion for improvement
F. Sattin
In this work we review the classical recipe for estimating partial cross sections for electron capture into selected energy levels within the Classical Trajectory Monte Carlo (CTMC…
On the computation of the entropy for dissipative maps at the edge of chaos using non-extensive statistical mechanics
F. Sattin
Tsallis' non-extensive statistical mechanics is claimed to be the correct tool to describe the behaviour of low-dimensional dissipative maps at the edge of chaos. Indeed, many diff…
