A Hamiltonian electromagnetic gyrofluid model
- Institute for Fusion Studies, University of Texas, Austin, Texas 78712 (United States)
An isothermal truncation of the electromagnetic gyrofluid model of Snyder and Hammett [Phys. Plasmas 8, 3199 (2001)] is shown to be Hamiltonian. The corresponding noncanonical Lie-Poisson bracket and its Casimir invariants are presented. The invariants are used to obtain a set of coupled Grad-Shafranov equations describing equilibria and propagating coherent structures.
