In a recent one-dimensional numerical fluid simulation study [Saxena et al., Phys. Plasmas 13,032309 (2006)], it was found that an instability is associated with a special class of one-dimensional nonlinear solutions for modulated light…

The plasma edge of a tokamak configuration is characterized by turbulent dynamics leading to enhanced transport. We construct a simplified 3D Hasegawa--Wakatani model reducing to a single partial differential equation for the turbulent…

The linear stability of a shear layer in a highly diffusive stably stratified atmosphere has been investigated. This study completes and extends previous works by Dudis (1974) and Jones (1977). We show that: (i) an asymptotic regime is…

Motivated by the rich variety of complex periodic and quasi-periodic patterns found in systems such as two-frequency forced Faraday waves, we study the interaction of two spatially periodic modes that are nearly resonant. Within the…

A new classical TM stability simulation workflow has been developed that solves the resistive inner-layer equations in a plasma slab to yield a linear, quasi-toroidal TM growth rate $\gamma$ and mode rotation frequency $\omega$. This…

It is well known that the radial displacement of the $m=1$ internal kink mode in a periodic screw pinch has a steep jump at the resonant surface where $\mathbf{k}\cdot\mathbf{B}=0$. In a line-tied system, relevant to solar and astrophysical…

We construct the low-frequency formulation of the turbulence characterizing the plasma in a Tokamak edge. Under rather natural assumptions we demonstrate that, even in the presence of poloidal magnetic fluctuations, it is possible to deal…

Dynamic metamolecules (DMMs) are composed of a dielectric core made of hydrogel surrounded by randomly-packed plasmonic beads that can display magnetic resonances when excited by light at optical frequencies. Their optical properties can be…

Traditionally the effects of MHD instabilities and micro-instabilities on plasma confinement are investigated separately. However, these two instabilities often occur simultaneously, with the overlap of the dynamics on a broad range of…

Here, we investigate the linear spatial stability of a parallel two-dimensional compressible boundary layer on an adiabatic plate by considering 2D and 3D disturbances. We employ the Compound Matrix Method for the first time for…

We study the linear and nonlinear evolution of the tearing instability on thin current sheets by means of two-dimensional numerical simulations, within the framework of compressible, resistive magnetohydrodynamics. In particular we analyze…

We discuss the role of tearing instabilities in magnetic reconnection. In three dimensions this instability leads to the formation of strong Alfvenic waves that remove plasma efficiently from the reconnection layer. As a result the…

We study the effect of a resonant frequency disorder on the eigenstates and the transport of magnetic energy in a two-dimensional (square) array of split-ring resonators (SRRs). In the absence of disorder, we find the dispersion relation of…

The application of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) with a toroidal mode number of n=4 or n=6 to lower single null plasmas in the MAST tokamak produces up to a factor of 5 increase in Edge Localized Mode (ELM) frequency and reduction…

The goal of this paper is to understand from a mathematical point of view the magnetic confinement of plasmas for fusion. Following Fr\'enod and Sonnendr\"ucker \cite{FS2}, we first use two-scale convergence tools to derive a gyrokinetic…

We report on the observation of spatially asymmetric turbulent structures with a long radial correlation length in the core of high-collisionality H-mode plasmas on DIII-D tokamak. These turbulent structures develop from shorter wavelength…

We review the evidence for and against the possibility that a strong enough poloidal field stabilizes an axisymmetric magnetostatic field configuration. We show that there does exist a class of resonant MHD waves which produce instability…

The resonances of forced dynamical systems occur when either the amplitude of the frequency response undergoes a local maximum (amplitude resonance) or phase lag quadrature takes places (phase resonance). This study focuses on the phase…

Effects of reversed magnetic shear on the plasma rotation stabilization of resistive wall modes in tokamaks are investigated using the AEGIS code. MHD equilibria in toroidal configuration from circular cross-sections to realistic CFETR-like…

Advanced tokamak scenarios often feature equilibriums with zero and reversed magnetic shear. To isolate and investigate their impacts on the resistive wall mode (RWM) instability analytically, we construct a series of cylindrical limiter…
