Gyrokinetics of resonant particles in a collisionless plasma

open access: yesJournal of Plasma Physics, 1985
A consistent drift-kinetic theory is developed for the interaction of resonant particles in a relativistic magnetized plasma with HF (high-frequency) wave packets for arbitrary ratio of the gyroradius to the wavelength. Gyrokinetic equations for the plasma particles are obtained for Čerenkov and cyclotron resonances as well as for those at the ...

Potential vorticity conservation for plasma turbulence in an inhomogeneous magnetic field: Theory and implications [PDF]

open access: yes
The concept and theory of potential vorticity in drift wave turbulence are extended to the case of an inhomogeneous magnetic field. A one-field magnetic potential vorticity conserving equation is derived via the use of conservative gyrokinetics.

Collision-dependent power law scalings in two dimensional gyrokinetic turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Nonlinear gyrokinetics provides a suitable framework to describe short-wavelength turbulence in magnetized laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. In the electrostatic limit, this system is known to exhibit a free energy cascade towards small scales in ...

Destabilization of geodesic acoustic-like mode in the presence of poloidally inhomogeneous heat sources in tokamak plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The effects of poloidally inhomogeneous heat sources are investigated through a gyrokinetic formula in collisionless toroidal plasmas. A gyrokinetic dispersion relation is newly derived under the assumption that equilibrium parallel heat flows are ...

The Gyrokinetic Description of Microturbulence in Magnetized Plasmas

open access: yes, 2012
Nonlinear gyrokinetics is the major formalism used for both the analytical and numerical descriptions of low-frequency microturbulence in magnetized plasmas.

The impact of E × B shear on microtearing based transport in spherical tokamaks

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Electromagnetic microtearing modes (MTMs) have been observed in many different spherical tokamak (ST) regimes. Understanding how these and other electromagnetic modes nonlinearly saturate is likely critical in understanding the confinement of a high β ST.
