Development of a Grid-Based Gyro-Kinetic Simulation Code

  • 1. Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), Centre de Recherches en Physique des Plasmas, CH-1015 Lausanne (Switzerland)

Description

The 4D Semi-Lagrangian code CYGNE for solving electrostatic drift-kinetic equations is presented. The code simulates well the linear phase. In the non-linear, phase development of negative value regions are investigated
