- W54185112 abstract "The Fokker-Planck equation is important in the kinetic theory of plasmas because it is used extensively to model the trapping of charged particles in magnetic mirrors and tokamaks. Standard finite difference numerical methods already exist that can compute the loss rates for multispecies linear and nonlinear models; however, these calculations are more difficult for smaller particle leakage (i.e., problems with larger magnetic mirror ratios R, defined as the ratio of the B-field at the end of the mirror to the B-field at the midplane). Approximate analytic estimates for the loss rates, accurate in the limit of large mirror ratios, exist via the Pastukov analytic method 4 but the accuracy is fixed and <20% (Ref. 5) for problems of interest to fusion. A nodal integral method (NIM) has been developed for the steady-state, space-independent Fokker-Planck equation and is now applied to electrostatic trapping of particles in a magnetic mirror. This paper shows that the NIM is superior to the finite difference method (FDM) for problems with less particle leakage and also in the calculation of the energy leakage. Electrostatic trapping, a difficult problem because the formulation becomes singular in the limit of complete trapping (zero leakage), is not as difficult formore » the NIM because the NIM gives exact one-dimensional solutions in such cases as zero leakage (a normalization constraint is required).« less" @default.
