Using an antenna as a tool for studying microturbulence and zonal structures in tokamaks with a global gyrokinetic GPU-enabled particle-in-cell code

Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

In order to get a better understanding of the interaction of plasma microinstabilities and associated turbulence with specific modes, an antenna is implemented in the global gyrokinetic Particle-In-Cell (PIC) code ORB5. It consists in applying an external ...

Turbulence in tokamaks generates radially sheared zonal flows. Their oscillatory counterparts, geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs), appear due to the action of the magnetic field curvature. The GAMs can be driven unstable by an anisotropic energetic particle (E ...

Global turbulence features across marginality and non-local pedestal-core interactions

Olivier Sauter, Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

Spatially non-local aspects of turbulent transport in tokamak plasmas are examined with global gyrokinetic simulations using the ORB5 code. Inspired by very accurate measurements in the TCV tokamak in L-mode, we initialise plasma profiles with constant log ...

Gyrokinetic full-f particle-in-cell simulations on open field lines with PICLS

Emmanuel Lanti, Alberto Bottino, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

While in recent years gyrokinetic simulations have become the workhorse for theoretical turbulence and transport studies in the plasma core, their application to the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) region presents significant challenges. In particular, ste ...

Pullback Scheme Implementation in ORB5

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Alberto Bottino, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

The pullback scheme is implemented in the global gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code ORB5 (Jolliet et al., 2007[1]) to mitigate the cancellation problem in electromagnetic simulations. The equations and the discretisation used by the code are described. Nume ...
