Study of the impact of fast ions on core turbulence at rational surfaces via global gyrokinetic simulations
D. Brioschi, A. Di Siena, R. Bilato +6
In this work, the interplay between fast ions and safety factor rational surfaces is studied in a turbulent plasma via global nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations. Initially, the fast…
Is Turbulence able to Generate Magnetic Islands in Tokamaks? Gyrokinetic Simulations of Turbulence-Driven Magnetic Islands in Toroidal Geometry
Fabien Widmer, Emanuele Poli, Alexey Mishchenko +3
We report a universal mechanism for turbulence-driven magnetic islands in fusion plasmas. Using gyrokinetic simulations of a linearly stable tearing mode in a large-aspect-ratio to…
Verification of the PICLS electromagnetic upgrade in mixed variables
Annika Stier, Alberto Bottino, David Coster +3
The gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code PICLS is a full-f finite element tool to simulate turbulence in the tokamak scrape-off layer. During the previous year, the capability of PICL…
