16. Sawteeth and other Transport Phenomena Induced by Ex-drifts in Tokamaks
Abstract : Electric fields and the concomitant ExB-drift play a prominent role in many plasma physics phenomena in Tokamaks. Several issues relevant for fusion research and related to the ExB-driven transport, are addressed in the present thesis. READ MORE

17. The induced magnetospheres and magnetotails of Mars and Venus
Abstract : In this work we focus on several aspects of the ionospheres, induced magnetospheres, and magnetotails of the unmagnetized planets Mars and Venus. The solar wind interaction with unmagnetized planets differs from the magnetized planets: they are more directly exposed to the solar wind, and consequently can respond faster and more dynamically to solar wind variations, necessitating careful analysis of the driving conditions upstream simultaneously with plasma measurements in the system.

18. Geometric discretization for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics on the sphere
Abstract : Many physical processes are modelled by partial differential equations (PDE), and their efficient discretization is still a challenging problem and an actively developing field. An important class of models arising in mathematical physics represents PDEs formulated in terms of a Lie-Poisson structure on the dual of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, such as the Lie algebra of vector fields.

19. Hot and Dense Gauge Theories with External Fields
Abstract : In the introductory part of this thesis, I briefly review quantum statistichal mechanics; quantum field theory with external fields; the real and imaginary time formalisms in thermal field theory; and the hard thermal loop resummation. In the second part, consisting of here reprinted research articles, we apply this to quantum electrodynamics and quantum chromodynamics with a background (chromo-) magnetic field in the presence of a heat and charge reservoir.
