Effects of Disorder on Chaotic Diffusion: Complex Particle Dynamics in Magnetized Plasmas

• Applicants: Professor Dr. Frank Jenko; Professor Dr. Günter Radons (†)
• Subject Area: Statistical Physics, Nonlinear Dynamics, Complex Systems, Soft and Fluid Matter, Biological Physics
• Term: from 2006 to 2010
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 28730419

Studies are in explicit contradiction to earlier studies which predicted significant levels of magnetic transport. The origins of these discrepancies are poorly understood and shall be investigated in the present project.
