FP7 & H2020 Projects
This is the last year of the ERC Project Nusikimo devoted to the mathematical and numerical analysis in statistical physics with a special interest to applications in Plasma Physics (CEA-CELIA laboratory in Bordeaux, where the Mega-Joule Laser is built) and micro-technology with MEMS (university of Catania). Our project gathers young researchers in applied mathematics from the group in Mathematical Modelling and Scientific Computing in Lyon.

Project title: Verification of global gyrokinetic codes and development of new algorithms for gyrokinetic and kinetic codes.
-
Abstract: The aim of this proposal the improvement of the numerical methods for gyrokinetic models and to investigate new ideas towards fully kinetic simulations of tokamaks and stellarators. It consists of three main parts: the first is devoted to the definition of verification models that enable to verify that the implemented codes are a good approximation to a given continuous model and that contain the most challenging numerical problems in the most simple possible setting. New benchmarks of the codes will also be performed. The second part is devoted to the improvement of each category of codes and the third to experimenting new ideas that can lead to better codes in the longer term
