A 5D gyrokinetic full- f global semi-Lagrangian code for flux-driven ion turbulence simulations

TL;DR: This paper addresses non-linear gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient (ITG) turbulence in tokamak plasmas by presenting a complete description of the electrostatic Gysela code's multi-ion species version including a numerical scheme, high level of parallelism up to 500k cores and conservation law properties.

Discontinuous Galerkin methods for the one-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system

TL;DR: A new family of semi-discrete numerical schemes for the approximation of the one-dimensional periodic Vlasov-Poisson system is constructed and optimal error estimates are shown for all the proposed methods in the case of smooth compactly supported initial data.

Discontinuous galerkin methods for the multi-dimensional vlasov–poisson problem

TL;DR: Two new semi-discrete numerical methods for the multi-dimensional Vlasov–Poisson system are introduced and a scheme that preserves the total energy of the system is proposed.

Neoclassical physics in full distribution function gyrokinetics

TL;DR: A spectrum of different collision operators is presented in this article, differing through both the physics that can be addressed and the numerics they are based on, and a detailed confrontation to neoclassical theory is shown.

A practical guide to splines

Carl de Boor
TL;DR: This book presents those parts of the theory which are especially useful in calculations and stresses the representation of splines as linear combinations of B-splines as well as specific approximation methods, interpolation, smoothing and least-squares approximation, the solution of an ordinary differential equation by collocation, curve fitting, and surface fitting.
