Book Synopsis Aspects of Anomalous Transport in Plasmas by : Radu Balescu
Download or read book Aspects of Anomalous Transport in Plasmas written by Radu Balescu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2005-04-01 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anomalous transport is a ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical, geophysical and laboratory plasmas; and is a key topic in controlled nuclear fusion research. Despite its fundamental importance and ongoing research interest, a full understanding of anomalous transport in plasmas is still incomplete, due to the complexity of the nonlinear phenomena involved. Aspects in Anomalous Transport in Plasmas is the first book to systematically consider anomalous plasma transport theory and provides a unification of the many theoretical models by emphasizing interrelations between seemingly different methodologies. It is not intended as a catalogue of the vast number of plasma instabilities leading to anomalous transport; instead it chooses a number of these and emphasizes the aspects specifically due to turbulence. After a brief introduction, the microscopic theory of turbulence is discussed, including quasilinear theory and various aspects of renormalization methods, which leads to an understanding of resonance broadening, mode coupling, trajectory correlation and clumps. The second half of the book is devoted to stochiastic tramsport, using methods based on the Langevin equations and on Random Walk theory. This treatment aims at going beyond the traditional limits of weak turbulence, by introducing the recently developed method of decorrelation trajectories, and its application to electrostatic turbulence, magnetic turbulence and zonal flow generation. The final chapter includes very recent work on the nonlocal transport phenomenon.

Book Synopsis A Drift Ordered Short Mean Free Path Description for Magnetized Plasma Allowing Strong Spatial Anisotropy by : Peter James Catto
Download or read book A Drift Ordered Short Mean Free Path Description for Magnetized Plasma Allowing Strong Spatial Anisotropy written by Peter James Catto and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short mean free path descriptions of magnetized plasmas have existed for almost 50 years so it is surprising to find that further modifications are necessary. The earliest work adopted an ordering in which the flow velocity was assumed to be comparable to the ion thermal speed. Later, less well known studies extended the short mean free path treatment to the normally more interesting drift ordering in which the pressure times the mean flow velocity is comparable to the diamagnetic heat flow. Such an ordering is required to properly retain the temperature gradient terms in the viscosity that arise from the gyrophase dependent and independent portions of the distribution function. Our treatment corrects the expressions for the parallel and perpendicular collisional ion viscosities found in these later treatments which used an approximate truncated polynomial expression for the distribution function and neglected the non-linear piece of the collision operator due to its bi-linear form. The modified parallel and perpendicular ion viscosities contain additional terms quadratic in the heat flux. In addition, we solve for the electron parallel and gyro-viscosities which were not considered by previous drift ordered treatments. As in all drift orderings we assume the collision frequency is small compared to the cyclotron frequency. However, we permit the perpendicular scale lengths to be much less than the parallel ones as is the case in many magnetic confinement applications. As a result, our description is valid for turbulent and collisional transport, and also allows stronger poloidal density and temperature variation in a tokamak than the standard Pfirsch-Schlüter ordering.

Book Synopsis Controlling and Exploiting Perpendicular Rotation in Magnetized Plasmas by : Ian Emanuel Ochs
Download or read book Controlling and Exploiting Perpendicular Rotation in Magnetized Plasmas written by Ian Emanuel Ochs and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation focuses on two related topics: controlling plasma rotation, and extracting ash from fusion reactors. Rotation is an extremely useful tool in plasma control, allowing for instability suppression, enhanced confinement, and the separation of different species. Ash, meanwhile, is a hot, charged byproduct of the fusion reaction that tends to heat electrons, degrading confinement and radiating away energy. Alpha channeling rectifies this situation by transferring the ash energy into a useful wave, while simultaneously extracting the ash from the plasma.It has been proposed that alpha channeling also extracts net charge from the plasma, generating an electric field and thus E x B rotation. However, existing theories do not explain how this process would conserve momentum.To develop a consistent theory, we first examine collisional transport in a magnetized plasma to review the deep connection between charge transport and momentum conservation. We then use this intuition to guide the development of a self-consistent, momentum-conserving theory of alpha channeling. We find an important difference between plane waves which grow in time, which do not drive rotation, and spatially structured waves, which do. This theory definitively determines the conditions under which alpha channeling extracts charge, within a very simple mathematical framework.Our models have many applications. We explore how E x B rotation can be used in toroidal systems to provide a self-consistent rotational transform, or in open-field-line geometries to centrifuge and remediate nuclear waste. We also show how waves can mediate collisionless momentum exchange between plasma constituents, and thus generate currents and magnetic fields in astrophysical systems.The techniques we develop turn out to also have immediate application to inertial confinement systems. We uncover surprising effects in Z-pinches, showing how magneto-inertial fusion reactors can be made more reactive than previously thought by leveraging multi-ion transport effects that naturally flush out ash. We also explain unintuitive rotation and current redistribution effects in existing Z-pinch experiments.Despite our application to very different plasma systems, occurring in apparently far-flung regimes of plasma physics, the same themes and models emerge repeatedly. Recognizing these deep connections reveals new opportunities for improving plasma control.
Book Synopsis Lecture Notes on Turbulence and Coherent Structures in Fluids, Plasmas and Nonlinear Media by : Michael Shats
Download or read book Lecture Notes on Turbulence and Coherent Structures in Fluids, Plasmas and Nonlinear Media written by Michael Shats and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the lectures delivered at the 19th Canberra International Physics Summer School held at the Australian National University in Canberra (Australia) in January 2006.The problem of turbulence and coherent structures is of key importance in many fields of science and engineering. It is an area which is vigorously researched across a diverse range of disciplines such as theoretical physics, oceanography, atmospheric science, magnetically confined plasma, nonlinear optics, etc. Modern studies in turbulence and coherent structures are based on a variety of theoretical concepts, numerical simulation techniques and experimental methods, which cannot be reviewed effectively by a single expert.The main goal of these lecture notes is to introduce state-of-the-art turbulence research in a variety of approaches (theoretical, numerical simulations and experiments) and applications (fluids, plasmas, geophysics, nonlinear optical media) by several experts. A smooth introduction is presented to readers who are not familiar with the field, while reviewing the most recent advances in the area. This collection of lectures will provide a useful review for both postgraduate students and researchers new to the advancements in this field, as well as specialists seeking to expand their knowledge across different areas of turbulence research.
