Title: Verification of long wavelength electromagnetic modes with a gyrokinetic-fluid hybrid model in the XGC code

Abstract

As an alternative option to kinetic electrons, the gyrokinetic total-f particle-in-cell (PIC) code XGC1 has been extended to the MHD/fluid type electromagnetic regime by combining gyrokinetic PIC ions with massless drift-fluid electrons analogous to Chen and Parker [Phys. Plasmas 8, 441 (2001)]. Two representative long wavelength modes, shear Alfvén waves and resistive tearing modes, are verified in cylindrical and toroidal magnetic field geometries.

Hybrid gyrokinetic ion/fluid electron simulation of toroidal tearing modes

Journal Article Zhang, Ruibo ; Chen, Yang ; Ye, Lei ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

The effects of toroidicity and kinetic ions on the resistive tearing mode are systematically studied with the gyrokinetic particle-in-cell simulation code GEM [Y. Chen and S. E. Parker, J. Comput. Phys. 220, 839 (2007)] and compared with analytic theory. A new field solver in toroidal geometry has been developed for the simulation of low-n (n = 1, 2) modes in tokamaks. It is found that the toroidal effect significantly reduces the growth rate of the tearing mode. The toroidal effect can also increase the radial width of the tearing mode and change the scaling between the radial mode width and resistivity duemore »« less

Linear gyrokinetic simulation of high-n toroidal Alfven eigenmodes in a burning plasma

Journal Article Yang, Chen ; Parker, Scott E ; Lang, J ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

A hybrid gyrokinetic ions/massless fluid electron model is used to study the stability of high-n toroidal Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs) in ITER [M. Shimada et al., Nucl. Fusion 47, S1 (2007)]. The hybrid model has been implemented in the particle-in-cell turbulence simulation code GEM [Y. Chen and S. E. Parker, J. Comput. Phys. 220, 839 (2007)]. The adequacy of the hybrid model for simulating TAEs has been previously demonstrated [J. Lang et al., Phys. Plasmas 16, 102101 (2009)] by comparing the simulated TAE mode frequency and structure with an eigenmode analysis, and the thermal ion kinetic damping effect with analytic theory.more »« less

Verification of the global gyrokinetic stellarator code XGC-S for linear ion temperature gradient driven modes

Dataset M, Cole ; R, Hager ; T, Moritaka ; ...

XGC (X-point Gyrokinetic Code) is a whole-volume, total-f gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code developed for modelling tokamaks.In recent work, XGC has been extended to model more general 3D toroidal magnetic configurations, such as stellarators.These improvements have resulted in the XGC-S version.In this paper, XGC-S is benchmarked in the reduced delta-f limit for linear electrostatic ion temperature gradient-driven microinstabilities, which can underlie turbulent transport in stellarators.An initial benchmark of XGC-S in tokamak geometry shows good agreement with the XGC1, ORB5, and global GENE codes.A benchmark between XGC-S and the EUTERPE global gyrokinetic code for stellarators has also been performed, this time in geometrymore »« less

Benchmarking gyrokinetic simulations in a toroidal flux-tube

Journal Article Chen, Y. ; Parker, S. E. ; Wan, W. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

A flux-tube model is implemented in the global turbulence code GEM [Y. Chen and S. E. Parker, J. Comput. Phys. 220, 839 (2007)] in order to facilitate benchmarking with Eulerian codes. The global GEM assumes the magnetic equilibrium to be completely given. The initial flux-tube implementation simply selects a radial location as the center of the flux-tube and a radial size of the flux-tube, sets all equilibrium quantities (B, ∇B, etc.) to be equal to the values at the center of the flux-tube, and retains only a linear radial profile of the safety factor needed for boundary conditions. This implementationmore »« less
