Scalable Quasineutral solver for gyrokinetic simulation

Modeling turbulent transport is a major goal in order to predict confinement issues in a tokamak plasma. The gyrokinetic framework considers a computational domain in five dimensions to look at kinetic issues in a plasma. Gyrokinetic simulations lead …

Intermittency in flux driven kinetic simulations of trapped ion turbulence

Flux driven kinetic transport is analysed for deeply trapped ion turbulence with the code GYSELA. The main observation is the existence of a steady state situation with respect to the statistics, in particular the balance between the injected energy …
