An adaptive moving mesh finite difference scheme for tokamak magneto-hydrodynamic simulations

Junming Duan

An adaptive moving mesh finite difference scheme is developed for tokamak magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulations, based on the CLT code (S. Wang and Z.W. Ma, Phys. Plasmas, 2015). Our numerical scheme is built on the MHD equations in curvilinear coordinate ...

Development of a reduced model for energetic particle transport by sawteeth in tokamaks

Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Anna Teplukhina, Matteo Vallar, Jiangyan Yang

The sawtooth instability is known for inducing transport and loss of energetic particles (EPs), and for generating seed magnetic islands that can trigger tearing modes. Both effects degrade the overall plasma performance. Several theories and numerical mod ...

Non-locality of the turbulent electromotive force

Abhijit Bhausaheb Bendre

The generation of large-scale magnetic fields ((B) over bar) in astrophysical systems is driven by the mean turbulent electromotive force ((E) over bar), the cross-correlation between local fluctuations of velocity and magnetic fields. This can depend non- ...
