The anisotropic fluid equations governing a frictionless obliquely-flowing plasma around an essentially arbitrarily shaped three-dimensional ion-absorbing object in a strong magnetic field are solved analytically in the quasi-neutral…
By choosing appropriate deformed Maxwellian ion and electron distribution functions depending on the two particle constants of motion, i.e. the energy and toroidal angular momentum, we reduce the Vlasov axisymmetric equilibrium problem for…
A feedforward scheme is applied for drift waves control in a magnetized magnetron sputtering plasma. A system of driven electrodes collecting electron current in a limited region of the explored plasma is used to interact with unstable…
We derive a gyrokinetic formalism which is very generally valid: the ordering allows both large inhomogeneities in plasma flow and magnetic field at long wavelength, like typical drift-kinetic theories, as well as fluctuations at the…
AA spontaneous toroidal rotation due to the electron-ion asymmetric anomalous viscous damping and the turbulent radial particle flux has been found, which explains the experimental observation of the anomalous toroidal momentum source in…
The stochastic advection of low energy deuterium ions is studied in a three dimensional realistic turbulence model in conditions relevant for current tokamak fusion experiments. The diffusion coefficients are calculated starting from the…
A novel third order nonlinear evolution equation governing the dynamics of high frequency electrostatic drift waves has been derived in the framework of a plasma fluid model in an inhomogeneous magnetized plasma. The linear dispersion…
Plasma flow and acceleration in a magnetic mirror configuration are studied using a drift-kinetic particles-in-cell model in the paraxial approximation, with an emphasis on finite temperature effects and energy transport. Energy conversion…
We study a finite Larmor radius model used to describe the ions distributions in the core of a toka-mak plasma, that consist in a gyro-kinetic transport equation, coupled with an electro-neutrality equation. Since the last equation do not…
The kinetic effects of electrons are important to long wavelength magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)instabilities and short wavelength drift-Alfvenic instabilities responsible for turbulence transport in magnetized plasmas, since the non-adiabatic…
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…
A model for ICRH induced flows in the presence of a strong magnetic field is presented. These flows are the finite temperature counterpart of flows existing in cold plasmas described e.g. in [D. Van Eester et al., Plasma Phys. Control.…
The particle and momentum balance equations can be solved on concentric circular flux surfaces to determine the effective viscous drag present in a magnetized tokamak plasma in the low aspect ratio limit. An analysis is developed utilizing…
An analytic solution to a generalized Grad-Shafranov equation with flow of arbitrary direction is obtained upon adopting the generic linearizing ansatz for the free functions related to the poloidal current, the static pressure and the…
We develop a gyrokinetic treatment for ions in the magnetic presheath, close to the plasma-wall boundary. We focus on magnetic presheaths with a small magnetic field to wall angle, $\alpha \ll 1$ (in radians). Characteristic lengths…
In magnetized plasma, the magnetic field confines particles around field lines. The ratio between the intensity of the parallel and perpendicular viscosity or heat conduction may reach the order of $10^{12}$. When the magnetic fields have…
Magnetic nozzles are a key component of electrodeless plasma thrusters, acting as their main acceleration stage. Non-stationary phenomena common to the entire range of $E \times B$ devices, such as oscillations and instabilities, are likely…
The drift-Alfven instabilities in the magnetic field aligned (parallel) sheared flow of a finite beta plasma with comparable inhomogeneous ion temperature and homogeneous electron temperature are examined. The development of instabilities…
A minimal system of equations is introduced and applied to study the drift motion of ferromagnetic particles suspended in a viscous fluid and subjected to a time-periodic driving force and a nonuniformly rotating magnetic field. It is…
The results of a theoretical investigation on the low-velocity stopping power of the ions moving in a magnetized collisional plasma are presented. The stopping power for an ion is calculated employing linear response theory using the…
