Seven new 3D modes of self-organization in DC glow discharges are computed in the framework of the simplest self-consistent model of glow discharge. Some of the modes branch off from and rejoin the 1D mode, while others bifurcate from a 2D or a 3D mode. The patterns associated with computed 3D modes are similar to patterns observed in the experiment. The computed transition from a spot pattern comprising five spots into a pattern comprising a ring spot also was observed in the experiment.

Self-organized patterns of spots on a at metallic anode in a cylindrical glow dis- charge tube are simulated self-consistently. A standard model of a glow discharge is used, comprising conservation and transport equations for a single species of ion
and electrons, written with the use of the drift-diffusion and local-field approximations, and the Poisson equation. The computation domain is the region from the anode to the discharge column; only processes in the near-anode region are considered. Multiple solutions, existing in the same range of discharge current and describing modes with and without anode spots, are computed by means of a stationary solver. The computed spots exhibited unexpected behavior. A reversal of the local anode current density in the middle of each of the spots was found, i.e. mini-cathodes are formed inside the spots. The solutions do not fit into the conventional pattern of self-organization in bistable nonlinear dissipative systems; e.g. the modes are not joined by bifurcations.
Self-organized patterns of cathode spots in glow discharges are computed in the cathode boundary layer geometry, which is the one employed in most of the experiments reported in the literature. The model comprises conservation and transport equations
of electrons and a single ion species, written in the drift-diffusion and local-field approximations, and Poissons equation. Multiple solutions existing for the same value of the discharge current and describing modes with different configurations of cathode spots are computed by means of a stationary solver. The computed solutions are compared to their counterparts for plane-parallel electrodes, and experiments. All of the computed spot patterns have been observed in the experiment.
The effect of magnetic perturbations (MPs) on the helical self-organization of shaped tokamak plasmas is discussed in the framework of the nonlinear 3D MHD model. Numerical simulations performed in toroidal geometry with the textsc{pixie3d} code [L.
Chacon, Phys. Plasmas {bf 15}, 056103 (2008)] show that $n=1$ MPs significantly affect the spontaneous quasi-periodic sawtoothing activity of such plasmas. In particular, the mitigation of sawtooth oscillations is induced by $m/n=1/1$ and $2/1$ MPs. These numerical findings provide a confirmation of previous circular tokamak simulations, and are in agreement with tokamak experiments in the RFX-mod and DIII-D devices. Sawtooth mitigation via MPs has also been observed in reversed-field pinch simulations and experiments. The effect of MPs on the stochastization of the edge magnetic field is also discussed.
This is an introduction to the special issue Genome organization: experiments and simulations, published in Chromosome Research, volume 25, issue 1 (2017).
In this experimental work, the thermodynamics and self-organization of classical two-dimensional Coulomb clusters are studied as a function of the cluster size. The experiments are carried out in a DC glow discharge Argon plasma in the Dusty Plasma E
xperimental (DPEx) device for clusters with different number of particles. Hexagonal symmetry around each individual particle is quantified using the local orientational order parameter ($|{psi_6}|$) for all the configurations. The screened Coulomb coupling parameter, which plays a key role in determining the thermodynamic nature of a Coulomb cluster, is estimated using Langevin dynamics and found to be sensitive to the number of particles present in the cluster. In addition, the process of self-organization and the dynamics of individual particles of the cluster as it changes from a metastable state to the ground state are examined through the estimation of dynamic entropy. Our findings suggest an intimate link between the configurational ordering and the thermodynamics of a strongly coupled Coulomb cluster system - an insight that might be of practical value in analysing and controlling the micro dynamics of a wider class of finite systems.
