Temperature-Gradient-Driven Tearing Modes
The observation of spontaneous islands growth in tokamak experiments indicates that the tearing mode could also be linearly unstable. However, in the framework of resistive magnetohydrodynamics, previous works have demonstrated that drift effects, electron heat transport along magnetic field lines and ion Larmor radius effects have stabilizing effects. Recently, numerical calculations and analy...
متن کاملElectron temperature gradient driven turbulence*
Collisionless electron-temperature-gradient-driven ~ETG! turbulence in toroidal geometry is studied via nonlinear numerical simulations. To this aim, two massively parallel, fully gyrokinetic Vlasov codes are used, both including electromagnetic effects. Somewhat surprisingly, and unlike in the analogous case of ion-temperature-gradient-driven ~ITG! turbulence, we find that the turbulent electr...
متن کاملTemperature gradient driven electron transport in NSTX and Tore Supra
Electron thermal fluxes are derived from the power balance for Tore Supra (TS) and NSTX discharges with centrally deposited fast wave electron heating. Measurements of the electron temperature and density profiles, combined with ray tracing computations of the power absorption profiles, allow detailed interpretation of the thermal flux versus temperature gradient. Evidence supporting the occurr...
متن کاملRadiation thermodynamics with applications to lasing and fluorescent cooling
Laser cooling of bulk matter uses thermally assisted fluorescence to convert heat into light and can be interpreted as an optically pumped laser running in reverse. Optical pumping in such devices drives the level populations out of equilibrium. Nonthermal radiative energy transfers are thereby central to the operation of both lasers and luminescent coolers. A thermodynamic treatment of their l...
متن کاملTemperature gradient driven short wavelength modes in sheared slab plasmas
The temperature gradient (h i and he) driven instability in the short wavelength regime, ukyr iu .1, is studied in a sheared slab. An analytical analysis is performed first to clarify the physics mechanisms for the modes in a shearless slab. The correlation between the growth rate and the real frequency of the modes is discussed in detail. The electron temperature gradient is found to have stro...
