Turbulent transport reduction by zonal flows : Massively parallel simulations

TL;DR: Three-dimensional gyrokinetic simulations of microturbulence in magnetically confined toroidal plasmas with massively parallel computers showed that, with linear flow damping, an asymptotic residual flow develops in agreement with analytic calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Excitation of internal kink modes by trapped energetic beam ions

TL;DR: In this article, a model for the instability cycle of a tokamak with trapped particles was proposed. But the model was not suitable for the case of the fishbone event.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hamiltonian guiding center drift orbit calculation for plasmas of arbitrary cross section

Roscoe White, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1984 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a Hamiltonian guiding center drift orbit formalism was developed for particle trajectories in magnetic field configurations of arbitrary cross section with arbitrary plasma β, where the magnetic field is assumed to be a small perturbation from a zero-order "equilibrium" field possessing magnetic surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Saturation of the tearing mode

TL;DR: In this paper, a quasi-linear analytical model is used to describe the nonlinear growth and saturation of tearing modes with mode number m⩾2 and the saturation amplitude is dependent on the form of the resistivity.
