Zonal flow generation in ion temperature gradient mode turbulence
In the present work the zonal flow ~ZF! growth rate in toroidal ion-temperature-gradient ~ITG! mode turbulence including the effects of elongation is studied analytically. The scaling of the ZF growth with plasma parameters is examined for typical tokamak parameter values. The physical model used for the toroidal ITG driven mode is based on the ion continuity and ion temperature equations where...
متن کاملKinetic Theories of Geodesic Acoustic Mode in Toroidal Plasmas
Geodesic Acoustic Modes (GAM) are known to constitute a continuous spectrum due to radial inhomogeneities. The existence of a singular layer causes GAM to mode convert to short wavelength kinetic GAM (KGAM) via finite ion Larmor radius (FLR) and finite guiding-center drift-orbit-width (FOW) effects. The dispersion relation of GAM/KGAM with FLR/FOW as well as parallel electric field contribution...
متن کاملRole of nonlinear toroidal coupling in electron temperature gradient turbulence
Global gyrokinetic particle simulation and nonlinear gyrokinetic theory find that electron temperature gradient sETGd instability saturates via nonlinear toroidal coupling, which is a nonlocal interaction in the wave vector space that transfers energy successively from unstable modes to damped modes preferentially with lower toroidal mode numbers. The electrostatic ETG turbulence is dominated b...
