"Semi-Lagrangian"

A drift-kinetic Semi-Lagrangian 4D code for ion turbulence simulation

A new code is presented here, named Gyrokinetic SEmi-LAgragian (GYSELA) code, which solves 4D drift-kinetic equations for ion temperature gradient driven turbulence in a cylinder (r;θ;z). The code validation is performed with the slab ITG mode that …
