In our previous paper (Hunana et al. 2022) we have employed the Landau collisional operator together with the moment method of Grad and considered various generalizations of the Braginskii model, such as a multi-fluid formulation of the 21-…
The velocity-space moments of the often troublesome nonlinear Landau collision operator are expressed exactly in terms of multi-index Hermite-polynomial moments of the distribution functions. The collisional moments are shown to be…
Grad's method is used on the linearized Boltzmann collision operator to derive the most general expressions for the collision coefficients for a multi-component, multi-temperature plasma up to rank-2. In doing so, the collision coefficients…
New analytical expressions for parallel transport coefficients in multicomponent collisional plasmas are presented in this paper. They are improved versions of the expressions written in [V. M. Zhdanov. Transport Processes in Multicomponent…
A two-fluid model is derived from the plasma kinetic equations using the moment model reduction method. The moment method we adopt was recently developed with a globally hyperbolic regularization where the moment model attained is locally…
We present a method for efficiently modelling Braginskii viscosity on an unstructured, moving mesh. Braginskii viscosity, i.e., anisotropic transport of momentum with respect to the direction of the magnetic field, is thought to be of prime…
The derivation of the multi-temperature generalized Zhdanov closure is provided starting from the most general form of the left hand side of the moment averaged kinetic equation with the Sonine-Hermite polynomial ansatz for an arbitrary…
Relativistic plasmas are central to the study of black hole accretion, jet physics, neutron star mergers, and compact object magnetospheres. Despite the need to accurately capture the dynamics of these plasmas and the implications for…
Simulations of plasma turbulence in a linear plasma device configuration are presented. These simulations are based on a simplified version of the gyrokinetic (GK) model proposed by B. J. Frei et al. [J. Plasma Phys. 86, 905860205 (2020)]…
An introduction to the use of projection-operator methods for the derivation of classical fluid transport equations for weakly coupled, magnetized plasmas is given. In the present work, linear response is addressed. In the Schr\"odinger…
Kinetic physics, including finite Larmor radius (FLR) effects, are known to affect the physics of magnetized plasma phenomena such as the Kelvin-Helmholtz and Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities. Accurately incorporating FLR effects into fluid…
A fluid model is developed for multicomponent two-temperature magnetized plasmas in chemical non-equilibrium from the partially- to fully-ionized collisional regimes. We focus on transport phenomena aiming at representing the chromosphere…
Two-fluid Braginskii codes have simulated open-field line turbulence for over a decade, and only recently has it become possible to study these systems with continuum gyrokinetic codes. This work presents a first-of-its-kind comparison…
Understanding turbulence via simplified fluid models is crucial for optimizing magnetic confinement in tokamak devices. In this work, we propose a novel high-order turbulence law that describes the turbulent cascade at the edges of fusion…
We introduce an extensible multi-fluid moment model in the context of collisionless magnetic reconnection. This model evolves full Maxwell equations, and simultaneously moments of the Vlasov-Maxwell equation for each species in the plasma.…
A generalized fluid-particle hybrid model for collisionless plasmas under the assumption of quasi-neutrality is presented. The system consists of fluid ions and electrons as well as arbitrary numbers of species whose dynamics is governed by…
The time-independent projection-operator formalism of Brey et al. [Physica 109A, 425-444 (1981)] for the derivation of Burnett equations is extended and considered in the context of multispecies and magnetized plasmas. The procedure…
A key uncertainty in the design and development of magnetic confinement fusion energy reactors is predicting edge plasma turbulence. An essential step in overcoming this uncertainty is the validation in accuracy of reduced turbulent…
A general method of solving the drift kinetic equation is developed for an axisymmetric magnetic field. Expanding a distribution function in general moments a set of ordinary differential equations are obtained. Successively expanding the…
One important problem in plasma physics is the lack of an accurate and complete description of Coulomb collisions in associated fluid models. To shed light on the problem, this Letter introduces an integral identity involving the…
