New Characteristics of Zonal Flows in Multi-scale Plasma Turbulence
The evolution of multi-scale plasma turbulence including resistive MHD and micro-instability is studied based on a 5-field gyrofluid simulation aiming to understand complex nonlinear interaction and turbulent transport. Here we report two new findings on the zonal flow (ZF) characteristics: (1) A robust oscillatory ZF with finite frequency is created in slab geometry for the first time due to t...
متن کاملMulti-scale gyrokinetic simulation of tokamak plasmas: enhanced heat loss due to cross-scale coupling of plasma turbulence
The transport of heat in laboratory and astrophysical plasmas is dominated by the complex nonlinear dynamics of plasma turbulence. In magnetically confined plasmas used for fusion energy research, turbulence is responsible for cross-field transport that limits the performance of tokamak reactors. We report a set of novel gyrokinetic simulations that capture ion and electron-scale turbulence sim...

متن کاملComparing simulation of plasma turbulence with experiment
The direct quantitative correspondence between theoretical predictions and the measured plasma fluctuations and transport is tested by performing nonlinear gyro-Landau-fluid simulations with the GRYFFIN ~or ITG! code @W.

متن کاملDevelopment of numerical techniques toward extreme scale fusion plasma turbulence simulations
The magnetic confinement fusion is one of the most promising approaches to a fusion reactor, and in the next generation experiment, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), the scientific and technological feasibility of a magnetic fusion reactor will be demonstrated. Fusion plasmas are extremely complex physical system consisting of multiple fluids (electrons and multiple s...
