The shear Alfv\'en wave (SAW) continuum plays a critical role in the stability of energetic particle-driven Alfv\'{e}n eigenmodes. We develop a theoretical framework to analyze the SAW continuum in three-dimensional quasisymmetric magnetic…
Significant progress has been made in designing magnetic fields that provide excellent confinement of the guiding enter trajectories of alpha particles using quasisymmetry (QS). Given the reduction in this transport channel, we assess the…
Recent advances in stellarator optimization have found nearly precise quasisymmetric configurations. These are expected to reduce the non-turbulent background plasma transport to acceptable neoclassical levels while removing nearly all…
Even if the magnetic field in a stellarator is integrable, phase-space integrability for energetic particle guiding center trajectories is not guaranteed. Both trapped and passing particle trajectories can experience convective losses,…
Fusion-born alpha particles in ITER disruption simulations are investigated as a possible drive of Alfv\'enic instabilities. The ability of these waves to expel runaway electron (RE) seed particles is explored in the pursuit of a passive,…
Using two-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations, we explore the nonlinear "interruption" of standing and traveling shear-Alfv\'en waves in collisionless plasmas. Interruption involves a self-generated pressure anisotropy removing the…
Following the analysis on linear spectra of shear Alfv\'en fluctuations excited by energetic particles (EPs) in the Divertor Tokamak Test (DTT) facility plasmas [T. Wang et al., Phys. Plasmas 25, 062509 (2018)], in this work, nonlinear…
The burning plasma performance is limited by the confinement of the superalfvenic fusion products such as alpha particles and the auxiliary heating ions capable of exciting the Alfv\'enic eigenmodes (AEs). In this work the effect of AEs on…
In many discharges at ASDEX Upgrade fast particle losses can be observed due to Alfv\'enic gap modes, Reversed Shear Alfv\'en Eigenmodes or core-localized Beta Alfv\'en Eigenmodes. For the first time, simulations of experimental conditions…
Collisionless physics primarily determines the transport of fusion-born alpha particles in 3D equilibria. Several transport mechanisms have been implicated in stellarator configurations, including stochastic diffusion due to class…
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…
This study comprehensively investigates fast ion-driven drift instability, extending the theory in [B. J. Kang and T. S. Hahm, Phys. Plasmas 26, 042501 (2019)]. The eigenmode equation, including the resonant contribution of passing fast…
Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities like Toroidal Alfv\'en Eigenmodes or core-localized modes such as Beta Induced Alfv\'en Eigenmodes and Reversed Shear Alfv\'en Eigenmodes driven by fast particles can lead to significant redistribution and…
The rapid progress of electron spin resonance scanning tunneling microscopy experiments has enabled the manipulation of individual adsorbate spin states physisorbed on ultrathin oxide layers supported on metal substrates. Electron resonance…
Finite-amplitude low-frequency Alfv\'en waves (AWs) are ubiquitous in space plasmas, where they play a key role in the transport and dissipation of energy, particularly in the heating of ions in the solar corona and solar wind. In this…
Hybrid MHD-gyrokinetic code simulations are used to investigate the dynamics of frequency sweeping reversed shear Alfv\'en eigenmode (RSAE) strongly driven by energetic particles (EPs) during plasma current ramp-up in a conventional tokamak…
Despite significant advances in reducing turbulent heat losses, modern quasi-isodynamic (QI) stellarators -- such as Stellaris -- continue to suffer from poor particle confinement, which fundamentally limits their overall performance. Using…
The dynamics of linear perturbations is studied in magnetized plasma shear flows with a constant shearing rate and with gravity-induced stratification. The general set of linearized equations is derived and the two-dimensional case is…
In this paper we propose a new model for quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) based on oscillating magnetohydrodynamic modes in neutron star magnetospheres. We argue that the interaction of the accretion disk with the magnetosphere can excite…
A new analytic expression is derived for the resonant drive of high n Alfvenic modes by particles accelerated to high energy by Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating. This derivation includes finite orbit effects, and the formalism is completely…
