SUMMARY:CASPER Seminar: David Brower, Department of Physics and Astronomy, UCLA; Research Fellow, Fusion Research Center, UT Austin:"Stochastic Magnetic Field Driven Particle and Momentum Transport in Collisionless Plasmas"
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:How are plasma particles and momentum transported along magnetic field lines that wander=0D=0A=
chaotically, as occurs for cosmic rays in the heliosphere and galaxy, thermally=0D=0A=
inhomogeneous interstellar and intergalactic plasmas, and laboratory plasmas? Transport=0D=0A=
resulting from stochastic magnetic fields has long been an important and unresolved issue in=0D=0A=
astrophysics and magnetic fusion research. For magnetic fusion plasmas, stochastic magnetic=0D=0A=
fields can arise from intrinsic global tearing instabilities that often underlie magnetic=0D=0A=
reconnection and lead to density relaxation. Understanding to date is largely limited by the=0D=0A=
lack of measurements of the magnetic fluctuation-induced particle flux in collisionless=0D=0A=
plasmas. In this talk, measurements will be described for the high-temperature core of the=0D=0A=
MST reversed field pinch; particularly during magnetic reconnection when the stochastic=0D=0A=
field resulting from tearing instabilities is strongest. Direct determination of the flux and its=0D=0A=
divergence is accomplished by combining laser-based, differential interferometry with fast=0D=0A=
Faraday rotation diagnostic systems.
