Turbulence optimization in magnetized plasmas
Plasmas are the underlying matter to most of the energetic events that we measure in our universe. Scintillation imaging techniques have transformed our field by enabling direct tracking of wave-particle interactions in plasmas. In 2021, my team made a pioneering contribution by providing the first direct measurements of wave-particle interactions driven by some of the most violent magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluctuations in a magnetized plasma. The physics model that we developed gave us the capability to design innovative control tools to minimize the MHD-induced particle transport and loss. TURBO4ENERGY will go a step further – aimed at resolving the wave-particle paradigm in magnetized…
