In a new toroidal laboratory plasma device including a poloidal magnetic field created by an internal circular conductor, the confinement efficiency of the magnetized plasma and the turbulence level are studied in different situations. The…
In a toroidal plasma confined by a purely toroidal magnetic field the plasma transport is governed by electrostatic turbulence driven by the flute interchange instability on the low-field side of the torus cross section. In this paper we…
We analyze the turbulence driven particle transport in Texas Helimak (K. W. Gentle and Huang He, Plasma Sci. and Technology, 10, 284 (2008)), a toroidal plasma device with one-dimensional equilibrium with magnetic curvature and shear.…
In tokamaks, internal transport barriers, produced by modifications of the plasma current profile, reduce particle transport and improve plasma confinement. The triggering of the internal transport barriers and their dependence on the…
Continuous control over azimuthal flow and shear in the edge of the Large Plasma Device (LAPD) has been achieved using a biasable limiter which has allowed a careful study of the effect of flow shear on pressure-gradient-driven turbulence…
The properties of low-frequency convective fluctuations and transport are investigated for the boundary region of magnetized plasmas. We employ a two-dimensional fluid model for the evolution of the global plasma quantities in a geometry…
The diffusions and anomalous diffusions of charged particles in the plateau regime of toroidal plasma with a Maxwellian velocity distribution are studied. The transport theory of plasma is discussed under the toroidal coordinate system and…
Decay times of plasma flows and plasma profiles have been measured after a sudden biasing switch-off in experiments on the CASTOR tokamak. A biased electrode has been used to polarize the edge plasma. The edge plasma potential and flows…
The development and time evolution of a transport barrier in a magnetically confined plasma with non-monotonic, nonlinear dependence of the anomalous flux on mean gradients is analyzed. Upon consideration of both the spatial inhomogeneity…
The two-dimensional hydrodynamic model for bounded dust flow dynamics in plasma is extended for analysis of driven vortex characteristics in presence of external transverse and weak magnetic field (${\bf B}$) in a planner setup and…
Azimuthal flow is driven in the edge of the Large Plasma Device (LAPD) [W. Gekelman, {\itshape et. al}, Rev. Sci. Instr. {\bfseries 62}, 2875 (1991)] through biasing a section of the vacuum vessel relative to the plasma source cathode. As…
In this work, we investigate the dynamics of plasma blobs in the edge of magnetic confinement devices using a full-f gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code with X-point geometry. In simulations, the evolution of a seeded blob is followed as it…
Physics of the plasma rotation driven by biasing in linear traps is analyzed for two limiting cases. The first, relevant for traps with decent plasma parameters, considers the line-tying effects to be responsible for the drive as well as…
Plasma turbulent transport was investigated at the edge of the GOLEM tokamak. For this purpose, ion saturation current fluctuations were measured by means of Langmuir probes. Plasma stabilization was not activated during the discharges…
A transport barrier in a toroidal plasma is treated as the boundary region between the hot and cold phases of the plasma. These two phases possess essentially different collisional and transport properties, so the boundary region between…
We address an experimental observation of shear flow of micron sized dust particles in a strongly coupled complex plasma in presence of a homogeneous magnetic field. Two concentric Aluminum rings of different size are placed on the lower…
In this work, we study the interplay between triangularity and micro-tearing turbulence using linear and nonlinear flux tube GENE simulations. We consider scenarios with negative and positive triangularity plasma shaping taken from existing…
A first-of-its-kind experiment was conducted in the DIII-D tokamak under WEST similarity constraints on plasma shape and core parameters. This work presents a detailed transport study comparing a reference regime dominated by intrinsic…
In tokamaks, modification of the plasma profiles can reduce plasma transport, improving particle confinement. However, this improvement is still not completely understood. In this work, we consider a drift wave test particle model to…
The effects of resonant magnetic perturbations on the turbulent transport of fast ions in tokamak devices are investigated using a theoretical transport model of test-particle type. The direct numerical simulation method is used to compute,…
