Coherent structures and anomalous transport in reversed field pinch plasmas
The results leading to the identification of coherent structures emerging from the background turbulence in the edge region of the reversed field pinch experiments EXTRAP-T2R and RFX are reviewed. These structures have traits of vortices in velocity field and blobs in density, and the reconstruction of their spatial structure and of their time evolution is discussed focusing on the analysis too...
متن کاملTurbulent particle transport in magnetized plasmas.
Particle transport in magnetized plasmas is investigated with a fluid model of drift wave turbulence. An analytical calculation shows that magnetic field curvature and thermodiffusion drive an anomalous pinch. The curvature driven pinch velocity is consistent with the prediction of turbulence equipartition theory. The thermodiffusion flux is found to be directed inward for a small ratio of elec...
متن کاملNeutral Vlasov kinetic theory of magnetized plasmas
The low-frequency limit of Maxwell equations is considered in the Maxwell-Vlasov system. This limit produces a neutral Vlasov system that captures essential features of plasma dynamics, while neglecting radiation effects. Euler-Poincaré reduction theory is used to show that the neutral Vlasov kinetic theory possesses a variational formulation in both Lagrangian and Eulerian coordinates. By cons...
متن کاملDust in Magnetized Plasmas
Overview of recent progress in studies of magnetized dusty plasmas is presented. Dust dynamic under the influence of an applied magnetic field in various types of discharges and conditions (including dust dynamic in the magnetized plasma sheath) is examined. The various dust driven mechanisms in magnetized plasma are considered and comparison experimental and theoretical data is performed. Infl...
متن کاملBlob-induced toroidal momentum transport in simple magnetized plasmas
The link between toroidal flows and density blobs is experimentally demonstrated in TORPEX simple magnetized plasmas: momentum is transferred from an ideal-interchange mode to density blobs. The phase shift between the toroidal flow and the density perturbations observed in the interchange mode where the blob is born is conserved along the blob radial trajectory. This leads to dipolar structure...
