Measurement of zero-frequency fluctuations generated by coupling between Alfven modes in the JET tokamak

Juan Ruiz Ruiz, Jeronimo Garcia, Michael Barnes +13

We report the first experimental detection of a zero-frequency fluctuation that is pumped by an Alfvèn mode in a magnetically confined plasma. Core-localized bidirectional Alfvèn m…

Collisional whistler instability and electron temperature staircase in inhomogeneous plasma

N. A. Lopez, A. F. A. Bott, A. A. Schekochihin

High-beta magnetized plasmas often exhibit anomalously structured temperature profiles, as seen from galaxy cluster observations and recent experiments. It is well known that when…

Suppression of temperature-gradient-driven turbulence by sheared flows in fusion plasmas

P. G. Ivanov, T. Adkins, D. Kennedy +3

Starting from the assumption that saturation of plasma turbulence driven by temperature-gradient instabilities in fusion plasmas is achieved by a local energy cascade between a lon…

Laboratory realization of relativistic pair-plasma beams

C. D. Arrowsmith, P. Simon, P. Bilbao +26

Relativistic electron-positron plasmas are ubiquitous in extreme astrophysical environments such as black holes and neutron star magnetospheres, where accretion-powered jets and pu…

Efficient micromirror confinement of sub-TeV cosmic rays in galaxy clusters

Patrick Reichherzer, Archie F. A. Bott, Robert J. Ewart +4

Cosmic rays (CRs) play a pivotal role in shaping the thermal and dynamical properties of astrophysical environments, such as galaxies and galaxy clusters. Recent observations sugge…

Kinetic stability of Chapman-Enskog plasmas

Archie F. A. Bott, Steven C. Cowley, Alexander A. Schekochihin

In this paper, we investigate the kinetic stability of classical, collisional plasma - that is, plasma in which the mean-free-path of constituent particles is short compared to…
