»Multiscale numerical treatment of the electron/ion kinetic model of fusion plasmas in the low electron/ion mass-ratio regime«

Abstract:
The main concern of this talk is the presentation of a multi-scale numerical scheme for an efficient resolution of the electron-ion dynamics in thermonuclear fusion plasmas. The starting mathematical model is based on a multi-species Fokker-Planck kinetic model, conserving mass, total momentum and energy, as well as satisfying Boltzmann’s H-theorem. Firstly, an asymptotic limit is performed, letting the electron/ion mass ratio going towards zero, ε->0, in order to obtain a reduced model, consisting of a thermodynamic equilibrium state for the rapid electrons (adiabatic regime), whereas the slow ions remain kinetic. Secondly, we develop a first numerical scheme, based on a Hermite spectral method, and perform numerical simulations to investigate in more details this (kinetic towards macroscopic) asymptotic electron/ion limit. The specificity of this method is the fact that it permits considerable improvements in simulation time for small ε-values, as in such regimes very few Hermite modes have to be taken into account.
