Oblique streaming waves observed in multipactor-induced plasma discharge above a dielectric surface

Guang-Yu Sun, Haomin Sun

In a recent discovery (Wen et al 2022 Phys. Rev. Lett. 129 045001), streaming waves were found in multipactor-induced plasma discharges. However, due to the limitations of a 1D simulation setup, these waves displayed only transverse dynamics. In this lette ...

Divertor turbulence characterisation using Gas Puff Imaging in the TCV tokamak

Curdin Tobias Wüthrich

The performance of magnetic confinement fusion devices, such as tokamaks, is strongly correlated to the phenomena that occur in the boundary region of the plasma core that faces the wall of the device. The dominant cross-field transport mechanisms from the ...

An improved statistical wake meandering model

Fernando Porté Agel, Corey Dean Markfort, Peter Andreas Brugger

A new statistical wake meandering (SWM) model is proposed that improves on existing models in the literature. Compared to the existing SWM models, the proposed model has a closed description that does not require simulations to create look-up tables while ...

Gyrokinetic simulation of low-n Alfvenic modes in tokamak HL-2A plasmas

Javier García Hernández, Samuele Mazzi

The turbulence characteristics of plasmas with internal transport barriers in the HL-2A tokamak are analyzed by means of linear gyrokinetic simulations. It is found that turbulence is dominated by the ion temperature gradient (ITG) mode together with large ...

How accurate are flux-tube (local) gyrokinetic codes in modeling energetic particle effects on core turbulence?

Olivier Sauter, Alberto Bottino

Flux-tube (local) gyrokinetic codes are widely used to simulate drift-wave turbulence in magnetic confinement devices. While a large number of studies show that flux-tube codes provide an excellent approximation for turbulent transport in medium-large devi ...
