Abstract
AbstractFluid descriptions can fail for fast processes such as Edge Localized Mode (ELM) [1] bursts because plasma transport properties may be affected by incomplete Maxwellization of plasma particles. In this case only kinetic plasma descriptions of ELMs can give qualitatively correct results. In the present work we propose three different models of ELM propagation in the scrape‐off‐layer (SOL). We also present the first results of the kinetic modeling of the propagation of ELM bursts along the magnetic field, towards the target in a SOL plasma. These simulations are performed with a 1D2V finite element Fokker‐Planck code ALLA [2] and with a 2D PIC code W2 [3].
