Renormalized turbulence theory for the ion acoustic problem
Wendell Horton,Duk In Choi +1 more
TL;DR: Renormalized kinetic theory for the long range collective oscillations of turbulent plasmas is developed through infinite order summations of the interactions in the Vlasov-Poisson self-consistent field equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weakly localized two‐dimensional drift modes
Duk In Choi,Wendell Horton +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the structure of drift modes in tokamaks is investigated taking into account modes that are weakly ballooning on the magnetic surfaces, and the toroidal mode theory of Conner, Hastie and Taylor is used to find the surface eigenfunctions and shear damping as a function of the system parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ion-acoustic heating from renormalized turbulence theory
TL;DR: In this article, an infinite-order perturbation theory of Vlasov turbulence was developed to obtain a renormalized formulation of the mode coupling and quasilinear equations for current-driven ion-acoustic turbulence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron diffusion in tokamaks due to electromagnetic fluctuations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived a nonlinear Ohm's law for the selfconsistent relation between the electrostatic and parallel vector potentials, and the diffusion coefficient scales approximately as the neo-Alcator and Merezhkin-Mukhovatov empirical formulas for plasma densities below a critical density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of the trapped ion mode by drift wave fluctuations
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of a spectrum of drift wave fluctuations on the trapped ion mode was investigated and shown to inhibit the onset of these modes, and the stochastic damping of the ion mode becomes comparable to the linear growth rate when the drift wave spectrum is described by previous theoretical models.
