Hamiltonian closures for fluid models with four moments by dimensional analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fluid reductions of the Vlasov–Ampère equations that preserve the Hamiltonian structure of the parent kinetic model are investigated. Hamiltonian closures using the first four moments of the Vlasov distribution are obtained, and all closures provided by a dimensional analysis procedure for satisfying the Jacobi identity are found. Two Hamiltonian models emerge, for which the explicit closures are given, along with their Poisson brackets and Casimir invariants.

Hamiltonian closures for two-moment fluid models derived from drift-kinetic equations
We derive the conditions under which the fluid models obtained from the first two moments of Hamiltonian drift-kinetic systems of interest to plasma physics, preserve a Hamiltonian structure. The adopted procedure consists of determining closure relations that allow to truncate the Poisson bracket of the drift-kinetic system, expressed in terms of the moments, in such a way that the resulting o...
متن کاملHamiltonian derivation of a gyrofluid model for collisionless magnetic reconnection
We consider a simple electromagnetic gyrokinetic model for collisionless plasmas and show that it possesses a Hamiltonian structure. Subsequently, from this model we derive a two-moment gyrofluid model by means of a procedure which guarantees that the resulting gyrofluid model is also Hamiltonian. The first step in the derivation consists of imposing a generic fluid closure in the Poisson brack...
متن کاملHamiltonian fluid reductions of electromagnetic drift-kinetic equations for an arbitrary number of moments
We present an infinite family of Hamiltonian electromagnetic fluid models for plasmas, derived from drift-kinetic equations. An infinite hierarchy of fluid equations is obtained from a Hamiltonian drift-kinetic systems by taking moments of a generalized distribution function and using Hermite polynomials as weight functions of the velocity coordinate along the magnetic guide field. Each fluid m...
متن کاملHamiltonian formalism of two-dimensional Vlasov kinetic equation.
In this paper, the two-dimensional Benney system describing long wave propagation of a finite depth fluid motion and the multi-dimensional Russo-Smereka kinetic equation describing a bubbly flow are considered. The Hamiltonian approach established by J. Gibbons for the one-dimensional Vlasov kinetic equation is extended to a multi-dimensional case. A local Hamiltonian structure associated with ...
