A conservative formulation of the drift-reduced fluid plasma model is constructed by analytically inverting the implicit relation defining the polarisation velocity as a function of the time-derivative of the electric field. The obtained…

Resource theories are a generic approach used to manage any valuable resource, such as entanglement, purity, and asymmetry. Such frameworks are characterized by two main elements: a set of predefined (free) operations and states, that one…
