Collisions in Global Gyrokinetic Simulations of Tokamak Plasmas Using the f Particle-In-Cell Approach: Neoclassical Physics and Turbulent Transport
The present work takes place within the general context of research related to the development of nuclear fusion energy. More specifically, this thesis is mainly a numerical and physical contribution to the understanding of turbulence and associated transport phenomena occuring in tokamak plasmas, the most advanced and promising form of magnetically confined plasmas. The complexity of tokamak p...
متن کاملDynamics of Electron-Rich Plasmas in the CNT Stellarator
Pure electron plasmas and electron plasmas with a finite ion fraction have been studied in the Columbia Nonneutral Torus (CNT) since the end of 2004. Results from the first three years of operation are summarized. Stable, small Debye length pure electron plasmas are routinely created, and have confinement times up to 20 msec. The confinement is limited by radial transport caused by internal rod...
متن کاملVlasov-kinetic computer simulations of electrostatic waves in dusty plasmas: an overview of recent results
A series of numerical simulations based on a recurrence-free Vlasov kinetic model using kinetic phase point trajectories are presented. Electron-ion plasmas and three-component (electron-iondust) dusty or complex plasmas are considered, via independent simulations. Considering all plasma components modeled through a kinetic approach, the linear and nonlinear behavior of ion acoustic excitations...
متن کاملGyrokinetic Simulations of the Nonlinear Upshift of the Critical Density Gradient for TEM Turbulence in Tokamak Fusion Plasmas
The effect of collisionality on a new nonlinear upshift of the critical density gradient for onset of Trapped Electron Mode (TEM) turbulence is investigated in detail. Both linear and nonlinear, high resolution simulations were performed on massively parallel computers using the gyrokinetic code, GS2. The TEM nonlinear upshift is analogous to the Dimits Shift for ion temperature gradient driven...
متن کاملSimulated expansion of an ultra-cold, neutral plasma
The details of recent calculations of the expansion of ultra-cold, neutral plasmas are given. The calculations are performed at several levels. The simplest level assumes an ansatz for the form of the electron and ion density; the result is a simple, ordinary differential equation which can be easily solved. The medium level of sophistication assumes the electrons are in thermal equilibrium but...
