Magnon-Assisted Magnetization Reversal of Ni81Fe19 Nanostripes on Y3Fe5O12 with Different Interfaces

Dirk Grundler, Andrea Mucchietto, Korbinian Baumgärtl

Magnetic bit writing by short-wave magnons without conversion to the electrical domain is expected to be a game-changer for in-memory computing architectures. Recently, the reversal of nanomagnets by propagating magnons was demonstrated. However, experimen ...

Interpretative 3D MHD modelling of deuterium SPI into a JET H-mode plasma

Umar Sheikh, Haomin Sun, Mengdi Kong, Cristian Sommariva

The pre-thermal quench (pre-TQ) dynamics of a pure deuterium ( D 2 ) shattered pellet injection (SPI) into a 3 MA / 7 MJ JET H-mode plasma is studied via 3D non-linear MHD modelling with the JOREK code. The interpretative modelling captures the overall evo ...

Small-scale dynamo with finite correlation times

Salim Bennouna

Fluctuation dynamos occur in most turbulent plasmas in astrophysics and are the prime candidates for amplifying and maintaining cosmic magnetic fields. A few analytical models exist to describe their behavior, but they are based on simplifying assumptions. ...

The Alfvenic nature of chromospheric swirls

Aleksi Antoine Bossart

Context. Observations show that small-scale vortical plasma motions are ubiquitous in the quiet solar atmosphere. They have received increasing attention in recent years because they are a viable candidate mechanism for the heating of the outer solar atmos ...

Runaway electron synchrotron radiation in a vertically translated plasma

Basil Duval, Umar Sheikh, Joan Decker, Artur Perek

Synchrotron radiation observed from runaway electrons (REs) in tokamaks depends upon the position and size of the RE beam, the RE energy and pitch distributions, as well as the location of the observer. We show experimental synchrotron images of a vertical ...

Nanoimaging of Ultrashort Magnon Emission by Ferromagnetic Grating Couplers at GHz Frequencies

Dirk Grundler, Andrea Mucchietto, Ping Che, Korbinian Baumgärtl

On-chip signal processing at microwave frequencies is key for modern mobile communication. When one aims at small footprints, low power consumption, reprogrammable filters, and delay lines, magnons in low-damping ferrimagnets offer great promise. Ferromagn ...

An arbitrary wavelength solver for global gyrokinetic simulations. Application to the study of fine radial structures on microturbulence due to non-adiabatic passing electron dynamics

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran, Ben McMillan, Gabriele Merlo, Julien Stanislas Pierre Dominski

The influence of the fine layers of the non-adiabatic passing electron response on electrostatic turbulent transport, previously studied systematically in flux tube geometry [Dominski et al., Phys. Plasmas 22, 062303 (2015)], is pursued in global geometry ...

Development and application of Eulerian and Particle-in-Cell gyrokinetic codes for studying the effect of non-adiabatic passing electron dynamics on microturbulence

Julien Stanislas Pierre Dominski

In tokamak fusion plasmas, micro-turbulence transport is known to be the cause of large losses of heat and particles. The present work deals with the study of electrostatic micro-turbulence transport driven by instabilities of essentially two types: the io ...

Formation of a three-dimensional plasma boundary after decay of the plasma response to resonant magnetic perturbation fields

Holger Reimerdes

First time experimental evidence is presented for a direct link between the decay of a n = 3 plasma response and the formation of a three-dimensional (3D) plasma boundary. We inspect a lower single-null L-mode plasma which first reacts at sufficiently high ...

Basic Investigation of Turbulent Structures and Blobs of Relevance for Magnetic Fusion Plasmas

Similarly to neutral fluids, plasmas often exhibit turbulent behavior. Turbulence in plasmas is usually more complex than in neutral fluids due to long range interactions via electric and magnetic fields, and kinetic effects. It gives rise to many interest ...
