Nonlinear simulations of Alfvén modes (AMs) driven by energetic particles (EPs) in the presence of turbulence are performed with the gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code ORB5. The …

The interplay between MHD and turbulence is an interesting topic in magnetically confined plasma and solar plasma. The experimental observations made recently, shown below …
In this work, we use the global electromagnetic and electrostatic gyro kinetic approaches to investigate the effects of zonal flows forced-driven by Alfv\'en modes due to their excitation …
A large international project, the ITER tokamak [1], currently under construction in France, aims to demonstrate a significant amount of fusion power, with a goal of achieving …
Tokamak plasmas often present turbulence due to the spatial gradients of density and temperature. Alfven modes (AMs) are also present, driven unstable by the energetic particle …
