Title: Plasma theory and simulation research

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5589450· OSTI ID:5589450

Our research group uses both theory and simulation as tools in order to increase the understanding of instabilities, heating, diffusion, transport and other phenomena in plasmas. We also work on the improvement of simulation, both theoretically and practically. Our focus has been more and more on the plasma edge (the sheath''), interactions with boundaries, leading to simulations of whole devices (someday a numerical tokamak).
