When a fusion plasma is above a critical value of beta,
neoclassical tearing modes
are destabilized. The resulting magnetic islands can grow to
large size, allowing
fast escape of the plasma from the fusion machine. The
primary tactic for preventing
tearing modes and reducing the size of magnetic islands in
fusion machines is to
apply current inside the magnetic islands. In...

Collisionless magnetic reconnection is enabled by electron
scale mechanisms and its
dynamic is mainly controlled by ion scale processes.
Whenever the to plasmas on both
sides of the current sheet have different properties, a lot of
well-known processes and
their associated signatures are vastly changed. In this
presentation, I will explain how
one can highlight the regions of...
