Saturation of energetic-particle-driven geodesic acoustic modes due to wave-particle nonlinearity
A. Biancalani, I. Chavdarovski, Z. Qiu +6
The nonlinear dynamics of energetic-particle (EP) driven geodesic acoustic modes (EGAM) is investigated here. A numerical analysis with the global gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code…
Linear gyrokinetic investigation of the geodesic acoustic modes in realistic tokamak configurations
I. Novikau, A. Biancalani, A. Bottino +7
Geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs) are studied by means of the gyrokinetic global particle-in-cell code ORB5. Linear electromagnetic simulations in the low electron beta limit have bee…
Cross-code gyrokinetic verification and benchmark on the linear collisionless dynamics of the geodesic acoustic mode
A. Biancalani, A. Bottino, C. Ehrlacher +10
The linear properties of the geodesic acoustic modes (GAM) in tokamaks are investigated by means of the comparison of analytical theory and gyrokinetic numerical simulations. The d…
Verification of Gyrokinetic codes: theoretical background and applications
Natalia Tronko, Alberto Bottino, Tobias Goerler +3
In fusion plasmas the strong magnetic field allows the fast gyro-motion to be systematically removed from the description of the dynamics, resulting in a considerable model simplif…
Hierarchy of second-order gyrokinetic Hamiltonian models for particle-in-cell codes
Natalia Tronko, A Bottino, Cristel Chandre +1
The reduced-particle model is the central element for the systematic derivation of the gyrokinetic Vlasov-Maxwell equations from first principles. Coupled to the fields inside the…
