Nonlinear dynamics of phase space zonal structures and energetic particle physics in fusion plasmas
A general theoretical framework for investigating the nonlinear dynamics of phase space zonal structures is presented in this work. It is then, more specifically, applied to the limit where the nonlinear evolution time scale is smaller or comparable to the wave–particle trapping period. In this limi...
