Coarse-grained gyrokinetics for the critical ion temperature gradient in stellarators
Physical Review Research, 2022 We present a modified gyrokinetic theory to predict the critical gradient that determines the linear onset of the ion temperature gradient (ITG) mode in stellarator plasmas.

On L to H-mode transitions of the tokamak and entropy reduction [PDF]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2006 In an ideal case, it is assumed that the models for tokamak and stellarator plasma behaviour lead to the theory of invariant manifolds by Rastović [Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2007]. But, at the present state of knowledge a more realistic concept for

Prevention of core particle depletion in stellarators by turbulence
Physical Review Research, 2023 In reactor-relevant plasmas, neoclassical transport drives an outward particle flux in the core of large stellarators and predicts strongly hollow density profiles. However, this theoretical prediction is contradicted by experiments.

Theory of stellar convection – II. First stellar models [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 We present here the first stellar models on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD), in which convection is treated according to the novel scale-free convection theory (SFC theory) by Pasetto et al. (2014). The aim is to compare the results of the new theory with those from the classical, calibrated mixing-length (ML) theory to examine differences and ...

Stellar Theory for Flag Complexes [PDF]
MATHEMATICA SCANDINAVICA, 2016 Refining a basic result of Alexander, we show that two flag simplicial complexes are piecewise linearly homeomorphic if and only if they can be connected by a sequence of flag complexes, each obtained from the previous one by either an edge subdivision or its inverse.

Multi-Hop Index Modulation-Aided OFDM With Decode-and-Forward Relaying
IEEE Access, 2018 In this paper, we propose a multi-hop index modulation-aided orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (IM-aided OFDM) system, which employs decode-and-forward (DF) relaying techniques to enable the transmission of information from source to destination

Stellar Convection Theory [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1980 This meeting, which deals with turbulence in stars, opens with a review on thermal convection. There is no better way to state from the start that among all instabilities that are likely to arise in stars, it is thermal convection which is the most firmly established as a cause for the turbulence that we observe on their surface. Our confidence in this

Perturbing an axisymmetric magnetic equilibrium to obtain a quasi-axisymmetric stellarator
, 2020 It is demonstrated that finite-pressure, approximately quasi-axisymmetric stellarator equilibria can be directly constructed (without numerical optimization) via perturbations of given axisymmetric equilibria.

Identification of important error fields in stellarators using Hessian matrix method [PDF]
, 2019 Error fields are predominantly attributed to inevitable coil imperfections. Controlling error fields during coil fabrication and assembly is crucial for stellarators.

Theory of Stellar Coronae [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987 X-ray observations have shown in recent years that the existence of high temperature plasmas in stellar atmospheres is far more widespread than extrapolated from preexisting theories of the solar and stellar coronae, forcing a radical change in our understanding of the mechanisms of coronal physics.
