Orb5: A global electromagnetic gyrokinetic code using the PIC approach in toroidal geometry

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Sébastien Jolliet, Alberto Bottino, Thibaut Vernay, Ben McMillan, Paolo Angelino, Julien Stanislas Pierre Dominski, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

This paper presents the current state of the global gyrokinetic code Orb5 as an update of the previous reference (Jolliet et al., 2007). The Orb5 code solves the electromagnetic Vlasov–Maxwell system of equations using a PIC scheme and also includes collis ...

Brownian motion in a Maxwell fluid

Sylvia Jeney, Matthias Grimm

The equilibrium dynamics of a spherical particle immersed in a complex Maxwell fluid is analyzed in terms of velocity autocorrelation function (VACF), mean-square displacement (MSD), and power spectral density (PSD). We elucidate the role of hydrodynamic m ...

Simulation numérique de phénomènes MHD : application à l'électrolyse de l'aluminium

Gilles Steiner

The purpose of this thesis is the study, from the numerical simulation point of view, of the aluminum electrolysis process. Navier-Stokes equations for the computation of a two fluids flow with free interface are coupled with Maxwell equations describing t ...

On the decoupling of heavy modes in Kaluza-Klein theories

Mikhail Chapochnikov

In this paper we examine the 4-dimensional effective theory for the light Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes. Our main interest is in the interaction terms. We point out that the contribution of the heavy KK modes is generally needed in order to reproduce the correct ...

Polarization reversal due to charge injection in ferroelectric films

Paul Muralt, Enrico Colla, Simon Bühlmann

The origin of a recently reported peculiar phenomenon-polarization reversal against the applied electric field in ferroelectric thin films [M. Aplanalp and P. Gunter, Ferroelectrics 258, 3 (2001), T. Morita and Y. Cho, Appl. Phys. Lett. 84, 257 (2004)]-has ...
