Gyrokinetic deltaf particle simulations of toroidicity-induced Alfvén eigenmode
Gyrokinetic f particle simulation is used to investigate toroidicity-induced Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs). Both thermal ions and energetic particles are fully kinetic, but a reduced fluid model is ...

In many antihydrogen trapping schemes, antiprotons held in a short-well Penning–Malmberg trap are released into a longer well. This process necessarily causes the bounce-averaged rotation frequency [overline  Omega ]r of the antiprotons around the trap axis to pass through zero. In the presence of a transverse magnetic multipole, experiments and simulations show that many antiprotons (over 30% in some cases) can be lost to a hitherto unidentified bounce-resonant process when [overline  Omega ]r is close to zero. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
