High frequency non-gyrokinetic turbulence at tokamak edge parameter

Plasma Physics 2024-11-20 v1 Computational Physics

Abstract

First of a kind 6D-Vlasov computer simulations of high frequency ion Bernstein wave turbulence for parameters relevant to the tokamak edge show transport comparable to sub-Larmor-frequency gyrokinetic turbulence. The customary restriction of magnetized plasma turbulence studies to the gyrokinetic approximation may not be based on physics but only a practical constraint due to computational cost.
