Regularity for Micropolar Fluid Equations Subjected to Hall Current

Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
In this paper, we consider the density‐dependent incompressible Hall‐magnetomicropolar fluid equations and establish a regularity condition involving the Lt1Lx∞ norm of the velocity gradient and the microrotational velocity gradient and the Lt2r/r−3Lxr norm of the magnetic field gradient for r > 3.

Convective and Orographic Origins of the Mesoscale Kinetic Energy Spectrum

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 21, 16 November 2024.
Abstract The mesoscale spectrum describes the distribution of kinetic energy in the Earth's atmosphere between length scales of 10 and 400 km. Since the first observations, the origins of this spectrum have been controversial. At synoptic scales, the spectrum follows a −3 spectral slope, consistent with two‐dimensional turbulence theory, but a ...

Kinetic instabilities that limit {\beta} in the edge of a tokamak plasma: a picture of an H-mode pedestal

, 2012
Plasma equilibria reconstructed from the Mega-Amp Spherical Tokamak (MAST) have sufficient resolution to capture plasma evolution during the short period between edge-localized modes (ELMs).

X‐ray lens figure errors retrieved by deep learning from several beam intensity images

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 1001-1009, September 2024.
A neural network trained with a few thousand simulations using random errors is demonstrated to predict accurately the lens error profile that accounts for all aberrations of a compound refractive lens in a synchrotron beamline.The phase problem in the context of focusing synchrotron beams with X‐ray lenses is addressed.

Two-fluid and magnetohydrodynamic modelling of magnetic reconnection in the MAST spherical tokamak and the solar corona

, 2015
Twisted magnetic flux ropes are ubiquitous in space and laboratory plasmas, and the merging of such flux ropes through magnetic reconnection is an important mechanism for restructuring magnetic fields and releasing free magnetic energy.

Fully non-inductive plasma start-up with lower-hybrid waves using the outboard-launch and top-launch antennas on the TST-2 spherical tokamak

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Removal of the central solenoid is essential to realize an economical spherical tokamak fusion reactor, but non-inductive plasma start-up is a challenge. On the TST-2 spherical tokamak, non-inductive plasma start-up using lower-hybrid (LH) waves has been
