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…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] The Material Properties of Weakly Collisional, High-Beta Plasmas
M. W. Kunz, J. Squire, S. A. Balbus +14
This white paper, submitted for the Plasma 2020 Decadal Survey, concerns the physics of weakly collisional, high-beta plasmas -- plasmas in which the thermal pressure dominates ove…
Martin David Kruskal: a biographical memoir
J. D. Gibbon, S. C. Cowley, N. Joshi +1
Martin David Kruskal was one of the most versatile theoretical physicists of his generation and is distinguished for his enduring work in several different areas, most notably plas…
Tearing mode stability calculations with pressure flattening
C J Ham, J W Connor, S C Cowley +3
Calculations of tearing mode stability in tokamaks split conveniently into an external region, where marginally stable ideal MHD is applicable, and a resonant layer around the rati…
Electromagnetic effects in the stabilization of turbulence by sheared flow
M. D. J. Cole, S. L. Newton, S. C. Cowley +4
We have extended our study of the competition between the drive and stabilization of plasma microinstabilities by sheared flow to include electromagnetic effects at low plasma …
Multiscale Gyrokinetics for Rotating Tokamak Plasmas: Fluctuations, Transport and Energy Flows
I. G. Abel, G. G. Plunk, E. Wang +4
This paper presents a complete theoretical framework for plasma turbulence and transport in tokamak plasmas. The fundamental scale separations present in plasma turbulence are codi…
