In this work, we investigate prompt ion drift orbit losses caused by shear Alfv\'en waves (SAW) in quasi-symmetric (QS) and quasi-isodynamic (QI) stellarators optimized for equilibrium confinement of energetic particles (EPs). We use the…
Characterizing the gap eigenmode of shear Alfv\'{e}n waves (SAW) and its interaction with energetic ions is important to the success of magnetically confined fusion. Previous studies have reported an experimental observation of the spectral…
The shear Alfv\'en spectrum is computed in the presence of symmetry breaking perturbations that introduce chaotic magnetic field trajectories. Quadratic flux minimised surfaces allow the creation of pseudo straight field line coordinates in…
The radial structure of the continuous spectrum of shear Alfven modes is calculated in the presence of a magnetic island in tokamak plasmas. Modes with the same helicity of the magnetic island are considered in a slab model approximation.…
The radial structure of the continuous spectrum of shear Alfven waves is calculated in this paper within the separatrix of a magnetic island. Geometrical effects due to the noncircularity of the flux surface's cross section are retained to…
The shear Alfv\'en continuum spectrum is studied for a tokamak with a single island chain using the ideal Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) theory. We have taken into account the toroidal geometry and toroidal mode coupling with the island…
Observations of molecular clouds show the existence of starless, dense cores, threaded by magnetic fields. Observed line widths indicate these dense condensates to be embedded in a supersonically turbulent environment. Under these…
The equations describing the continuous spectrum of shear Alfv\'en and ion sound waves propagating along magnetic field lines are introduced and solved in the ballooning space for general geometry in the ideal MHD limit. This approach is…
In this letter, we investigate the population of energetically-dominant sunward-propagating Alfv\'en waves (SAWs) using more than 20 years of data provided by the Wind spacecraft near 1 au. We refer to SAWs as energetically-dominant…
Surface Acoustic Waves (SAW) have been utilized to investigate the properties of a two-dimensional electron system, subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field and monochromatic microwave radiation, in the regime where the so-called…
A general equation describing the resonant nonlinear mode-coupling among kinetic Alfv\'en waves (KAWs) is derived using nonlinear gyrokinetic theory, which can be applied to study the potentially strong spectral energy transfer of KAWs. As…
Kinetic Alfv\'en Waves (KAWs) are generated in magnetized space and laboratory plasmas due to a continuous shear Alfv\'en wave (SAW) spectrum and, unlike SAWs, are characterized by microscale perpendicular structures of the order of the…
Instabilities in a neutron star can generate Alfv\'en waves in its magnetosphere. Propagation along the curved magnetic field lines strongly shears the wave, boosting its electric current $j_{\rm A}$. We derive an analytic expression for…
In this paper, we propose and analyze semi-implicit numerical schemes for the stochastic wave equation (SWE) with general nonlinearity and multiplicative noise. These numerical schemes, called stochastic scalar auxiliary variable (SAV)…
In ideal MHD, shear Alfv\'{e}n eigenmodes may experience dissipationless damping due to resonant interaction with the shear Alfv\'{e}n continuum. This continuum damping can make a significant contribution to the overall growth/decay rate of…
The characteristics of Alfv\'en waves propagating in a direction oblique to the ambient magnetic field in a stellar wind environment are discussed. A kinetic formulation for a magnetized dusty plasma is adopted considering Maxwellian…
A shear Alfv\'en wave parametric instability is observed for the first time in the laboratory. When a single finite $\omega/\Omega_i$ kinetic Alfv\'en wave (KAW) is launched in the Large Plasma Device above a threshold amplitude, three…
The evolution of a linearly-polarized, long-wavelength Alfv\'en wave --propagating in a collisionless magnetized plasma with a sheared parallel-directed velocity flow-- is here studied by means of two-dimensional hybrid Vlasov-Maxwell (HVM)…
This paper explores small-scale departures from force-free electrodynamics around a rotating neutron star, extending our treatment of resistive instability in a quantizing magnetic field. A secondary, Cerenkov instability is identified:…
A workflow is developed based on the ideal MHD model to investigate the linear physics of various Alfv\'en eigenmodes in general axisymmetric toroidal geometry, by solving the coupled shear Alfv\'en wave (SAW) and ion sound wave (ISW)…
