Ion acceleration and coherent structures generated by lower hybrid shear-driven instabilities

Journal Article Romero, H ; Ganguli, G ; Lee, Y C - Physical Review Letters; (United States)

It is shown that if [kappa]=[omega][sub [ital S]]/[omega][sub LH][gt]1 ([omega][sub [ital S]] and [omega][sub LH] are the shear and lower hybrid frequencies), a sheared electron cross-field flow excites the electron-ion-hybrid mode, causing significant perpendicular ion acceleration. The electric potential develops coherent structures (vortexlike) longer than the electron Larmor radius, [rho][sub [ital e]]. For [kappa][lt]1, a smooth transition occurs where the wavelength becomes of the order of [rho][sub [ital e]], the lower hybid drift instability dominates, and the formation of vortexlike structures is no longer observed. The results are relevant to laboratory, laser-produced, and space plasmas.

Visualization of Fast Ion Phase-Space Flow Driven by Alfvén Instabilities

Journal Article Du, X. D. ; Van Zeeland, M. A. ; Heidbrink, W. W. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Fast ion phase-space flow, driven by Alfven eigenmodes (AEs), is measured by an imaging neutral particle analyzer in the DIII-D tokamak. The flow firstly appears near the minimum safety factor at the injection energy of neutral beams, and then moves radially inward and outward by gaining and losing energy, respectively. The flow trajectories in phase space align well with the intersection lines of the constant magnetic moment surfaces and constant E – (ω/n)P_ζ surfaces, where E, P_ζ are energy and toroidal canonical momentum of ions; ω and n are angular frequencies and toroidal mode numbers of AEs.

Phase space coherent structure of charged particles system

Journal Article Lin, H ; Shen, B F ; Xu, Z Z - Physics of Plasmas

A class of 3-D numerical solutions of Vlasov-Maxwell equation set is obtained from standard power series solution. Such a class of 3-D numerical solutions corresponds to some phase space coherent structures in electron distribution function, which are more complicated than the well-known hole structure. Based on these solutions, various profiles of related physical quantities are also calculated.

Exact Coherent Structures and Phase Space Geometry of Preturbulent 2D Active Nematic Channel Flow

Journal Article Wagner, Caleb G. ; Norton, Michael M. ; Park, Jae Sung ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Confined active nematics exhibit rich dynamical behavior, including spontaneous flows, periodic defect dynamics, and chaotic “active turbulence.” Here, we study these phenomena using the framework of exact coherent structures, which has been successful in characterizing the routes to high Reynolds number turbulence of passive fluids. Exact coherent structures are stationary, periodic, quasiperiodic, or traveling wave solutions of the hydrodynamic equations that, together with their invariant manifolds, serve as an organizing template of the dynamics. We compute the dominant exact coherent structures and connecting orbits in a preturbulent active nematic channel flow, which enables a fully nonlinear but highly reduced-order descriptionmore »« less

Transverse instability and magnetic structures associated with electron phase space holes

Journal Article Aimin, Du ; Mingyu, Wu ; Quanming, Lu ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

Electron phase space holes (electron holes) are found to be unstable to the transverse instability. Two-dimensional (2D) electromagnetic particle-in-cell simulations are performed to investigate the structures of the fluctuating magnetic field associated with electron holes. The combined actions between the transverse instability and the stabilization by the background magnetic field (B{sub 0}=B{sub 0}e-vector{sub x}) lead a one-dimensional electron hole into several 2D electron holes which are isolated in both the x and y directions. The electrons trapped in these 2D electron holes suffer the electric field drift v{sub E}=ExB{sub 0}/B{sub 0}{sup 2} due to the existence of the perpendicular electricmore »« less
