The Hasegawa-Wakatani equations, coupling plasma density and electrostatic potential through an approximation to the physics of parallel electron motions, are a simple model that describes resistive drift wave turbulence. We present…
We investigate the drift wave -- zonal flow dynamics in a shearless slab geometry with the new flux-balanced Hasegawa-Wakatani model. As in previous Hasegawa-Wakatani models, we observe a sharp transition from a turbulence dominated regime…
We propose a new reduced fluid model for the study of the drift wave -- zonal flow dynamics in magnetically confined plasmas. Our model can be viewed as an extension of the classic Hasegawa-Wakatani (HW) model, and is based on an improved…
Plasma turbulence described by the Hasegawa-Wakatani equations has been simulated numerically for different models and values of the adiabaticity parameter C. It is found that for low values of C turbulence remains isotropic, zonal flows…
Resistive drift wave turbulence is a multipurpose paradigm that can be used to understand transport at the edge of fusion devices. The Hasegawa-Wakatani model captures the essential physics of drift turbulence while retaining the simplicity…
We show that the recently introduced two-field flux-balanced Hasegawa-Wakatani (BHW) model captures the key features of drift-wave turbulent transport mediated by zonal flows observed in more complete and accurate gyrokinetic simulations,…
Solitary zonal structures have recently been identified in gyrokinetic simulations of subcritical drift-wave (DW) turbulence with background shear flows. However, the nature of these structures has not been fully understood yet. Here, we…
This paper gives a pedagogic review of the envelope formalism for excitation of zonal flows by nonlinear interactions of plasma drift waves or Rossby waves, described equivalently by the Hasegawa-Mima (HM) equation or the quasigeostrophic…
The transition between two-dimensional hydrodynamic turbulence and quasi-one-dimensional zonostrophic turbulence is examined in the modified Hasegawa-Wakatani system, which is considered as a minimal model of $\beta$-plane-like drift-wave…
The results of numerical simulations of the Hasegawa-Wakatani equation demonstrate that, similarly to decaying turbulence in 2D fluids, at a small electron adiabaticity parameter, the resistive-drift-wave (RDW) turbulence is dominated by…
Non-linear dynamics of zonal flows is investigated in the context of the gyrofluid modified Hasegawa-Wakatani model. Merging of zonal flows and the chaotic developement of the initial zonal flow pattern is explored. Conservation equations…
Developing physically consistent closure models is a longstanding challenge in simulating plasma turbulence, even in minimal systems such as the two-field Hasegawa-Wakatani (HW) model, which captures essential features of drift-wave…
A detailed study of the Charney-Hasegawa-Mima model and its extensions is presented. These simple nonlinear partial differential equations suggested for both Rossby waves in the atmosphere and also drift waves in a magnetically-confined…
A general equation for drift waves is derived incorporating both nonlinear electron density perturbation and ion vorticity effects. It is emphasized that the well-known Hasegawa-Mima (HM) equation for drift waves [A. Hasegawa and K. Mima,…
The wave kinetic equation (WKE) describing drift-wave (DW) turbulence is widely used in studies of zonal flows (ZFs) emerging from DW turbulence. However, this formulation neglects the exchange of enstrophy between DWs and ZFs and also…
This is a review of the theory of the modulational instability in idealised fluid models of strongly magnetised plasmas and reduced models of geophysical fluid dynamics, particularly the role it plays in the formation of zonal flows. The…
The coherent vortex extraction method, a wavelet technique for extracting coherent vortices out of turbulent flows, is applied to simulations of resistive drift-wave turbulence in magnetized plasma (Hasegawa-Wakatani system). The aim is to…
Transitionally turbulent flows frequently exhibit spatiotemporal intermittency, reflecting a complex interplay between driving forces, dissipation, and transport present in these systems. When this intermittency manifests as observable…
The Generalized Hasegawa-Mima (GHM) equation, which generalizes the standard Hasegawa-Mima (HM) equation, is a nonlinear equation describing the evolution of drift wave turbulence in curved magnetic fields. The GHM equation can be obtained…
We present numerical simulations of fully nonlinear drift wave-zonal flow (DW-ZF) turbulence systems in a nonuniform magnetoplasma. In our model, the drift wave (DW) dynamics is pseudo-three-dimensional (pseudo-3D) and accounts for…
