1. Theory of Ion Temperature Gradient Driven Instabilities: Threshold and Transport
Sammanfattning : The object of this thesis is the theory of the ion temperature gradient driven (ITGD) mode, including instabilities, thresholds and associated anomalous transport. The linear threshold has been investigated both analytically and numerically in various parameter domains. LÄS MER
2. Turbulent impurity transport in tokamak fusion plasmas
Sammanfattning : With the enormous growth of high performance computing (HPC) over the last few decades, plasma physicists have gained access to a valuable instrument for investigating turbulent plasma behaviour. In this thesis, these tools are utilised for the study of particle transport in fusion devices of the tokamak variety, focusing in particular on the transport of impurities. LÄS MER
3. Temperature Gradient Instabilities and Transport in Toroidal Plasmas
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on temperature gradient driven modes and their implications for heat and particle transport in toroidal plasmas. Some of the consequences of including an ion impurity species in a model for low frequency electrostatic modes and fluctuation driven transport are discussed. LÄS MER
4. Drift ballooning and ITG instabilities in tokamak plasmas
Sammanfattning : A major aim in fusion research is to understand, predict and control confined plasma instability in terms of equilibrium, stability and transport. Substantial progress has been made in recent years in understanding stability and transport in terms of MHD instability and drift wave instabilities. LÄS MER
5. Modelling and measuring transport in fusion plasmas
Sammanfattning : In the present thesis we consider theoretical and experimental aspects of the turbulent transport which is a crucial issue in fusion plasma physics.Experimental observations and gyrokinetic simulations show that collisions strongly influence the turbulent flux of particles. LÄS MER
