Full textThis thesis deals with dynamicla investigation of magnetically confined fusion plasmas by using Lagrangian and Hamilton formalisms. It consists of three parts. The first part is devoted to the investigation of barrier formation for the EXB drift model by means of the Hamiltonian control method. The strong magnetic field approach is relevant for magnetically confined fusion plasmas ; this is why at the first approximation one can consider the dynamics of particles driven by constant and uniform magnetic field. In this case only the electrostatic turbulence is taken into account. During this study the expressions for the control term (quadratic in perturbation amplitude) additive to the electrostatic potential, has been obtained. The effeciency of such a control for stopping turbulent diffusion has been shown analytically abd numerically. The second and the third parts of this thesis are devoted to study of self consistent phenomena in magnetized plasmas through the Maxwell-Vlasov model. In particular, the second part of this thesis treats the problem of the monumentum transport by derivation of its conservation law. the Euler-Poincare variational principle (with constrained variations) as well as Noether's theorem is apllied here. this derivation is realized in two cases : first, in electromagnetic turbulence case for the full Maxwell-Vlasov system, and then in electrostatic turbulence case for the gyrokinetic Maxwell-Vlasov system. Then the intrinsic mechanisms reponsible for the intrinsic plama rotation, that can give an important in plasma stabilization, are identified. The last part of this thesis deals with dynamicla reduction for the Maxwell-Vlaslov model. More particularly; the intrisic formulation for the guiding center model is derived. Here the term 'intrinsis" means that no fixed frame was used during its construction. Due to that not any problem related to the gyrogauge dependence of dynamics appears. The study of orbits of trapped particles is considered as one of the possible for illustration of the first step of such a dynamical reduction

In this thesis, I analyzed the behavior of the plasma instability known as the tearing mode in parameter regimes relevant to magnetically-confined fusion plasmas. This included a derivation of the relevant equations and a method of solving them using Fourier analysis. This method allowed the derivation of several analytic results and efficient calculation of numeric results about the growth rates and frequencies of the analyzed modes, and demonstrated the existence of a second type of unstable tearing mode related to electron inertia. The results of the analysis of this inertial mode proved consistent with experimental data on the tearing mode from JET, and suggests further analysis in the nonlinear regime to verify this consistency.

The ablation of solid pellets injected into high temperature magnetically confined plasmas is characterized by rapid oscillations in the ablation rate, and the formation of field aligned filaments in the ablatant. High speed imaging of the ablation (> 250, 000 frames/second) during the 2003-2004 campaign revealed that these filament move away from the pellet primarily in the poloidal direction with a characteristic speeds of ~ 5km/s. Significant differences appeared in the filament drifts in RF heated H-mode plasmas compared to ohmic L-mode plasmas. Filaments in ohmic L-mode plasmas moved in both the electron and ion diamagnetic directions while filaments in H-mode move only in the electron diamagnetic direction. Furthermore, the motion of the filaments in L-mode plasmas appeared to be semi-random, with the direction changing randomly from shot to shot, but with a distinct preferred direction during each shot. The susceptibility of the filament's motion to variations in the background plasma conditions indicate that the drift is a result of interactions with the background plasma, and not a result of the internal dynamics of the ablation cloud. Furthermore, the chaotic, or semi-random, nature of the filament drift suggests that the drift could be due to ExB flows resulting from plasma turbulence. A stereoscopic imaging system was installed on Alcator C-Mod to make a detailed study of three dimensional evolution of the filaments. By examining a large number of pellet injections into ohmically heated L-mode plasmas, we were able to demonstrate that filaments do indeed move primarily along flux surfaces, and that the filament flow direction is correlated for sequential filaments. Additionally, a statistical examination of the trajectory data revealed that filaments have a wider distribution of speeds at lower values of the local safety factor, q. The measurements of the stereo-imaging system were compared with the implied turbulent ExB drifts determined by the gyrokinetic solver GYRO. Simulations conducted using profiles consistent with both pre-pellet and post-pellet conditions demonstrate that the filament drifts are more consistent with the turbulent conditions prevalent after the injection, indicating the filament drifts are most likely the result of turbulence generated by the modified plasma profiles from injection process itself.

Plasma confinement experiments continue to uncover fascinating phenomena that motivate theoretical discussion and exploration. In this thesis, we consider the phenomenon of angular momentum transport in magnetically confined plasmas. Relevant experiments and theoretical developments are presented in order to motivate the derivation of a modified version of the three-field nonlinear Hamaguchi-Horton equations. The equations are altered to include a zeroth-order parallel velocity inhomogeneity along the radially-analogous coordinate, resulting in a nonlinear system that describes the evolution of the velocity-ion temperature gradient-driven modes (VITGs). The equations are used to analyze VITG modes in the local approximation of a magnetized plasma, as well as in an inhomogeneous slab model. Applying quasilinear methods, we find a turbulent angular momentum flux in agreement with the accretion theory of the spontaneous rotation phenomenon. More advanced applications are considered for future analysis.
