You're right, I'd better code it anyway. But a package would be helpful to benchmark against my own code. Sorry, I can't share my project before we have some paper out. I'll try to answer to you in a few months.

Yes indeed, tri, not bi.

Dear all, I have time-series data, from which I would like to compute the tricoherence. After some googling, it seems that I will have to write my own code. But before I begin, let me ask this. Do anyone here know of a code, library (fortran, c), module (python, matlab, IDL, mathematica)...

Thank you for your interest. You guessed correctly, that the mass ratio is unrealistic, m_i/m_e = 4. I use this value for pedagogical reasons, because the evolution of structures becomes much clearer than for m_i/m_e = 1836. However, I get similar results for m_i/m_e = 1836, except that the...

Well you can develop diagnostics from the plasma physics POV or from the EE POV, some people do both but they are the exception I think.

You should try to find out if you are more interested in the plasma physics side, the nuclear physics side (not much open questions left in fusion as far as I know), the material science side, or the electrical engineering side (to develop new diagnostics). These are quite separate worlds. If...

You can search Z-pinch, you should find the relevant info.

Let me give you a glimpse at my research. I uploaded a video of my latest simulation on youtube, . You can see the formation and evolution of vortices in hot plasma such as fusion plasma. The subtlety is that these vortices do not live in the real, everyday-life 3D space, but in an...

Thank you! Actually it is this very book that inspired my current work. Very insightful indeed. On the theory side at least. The first author of this book is also a co-author of a paper I'm writing on a related topic. I'll post the paper here when it's published. However, in this book I...

I recently got interested in this topic. Thanks for the references! Before I dive into the literature though, I would like to know what kind of coherent structures are you talking about. Do they live in phase-space or in configuration-space? Are they self-binding? What kind of waves are they...

Here is a glimpse of my current research. This is a kinetic simulation of electrostatic waves in a bump-on-tail plasma, with multiple resonances and some dissipation. Quasi-linear theory predicts a flattening of the velocity distribution over the range of resonant velocities of linearly unstable...
