| contents | The ALLIANCE code is developed to solve a new set of four-dimensional electromagnetic drift-kinetic equations in slab geometry [J. Plasma Phys. 88 905880117 (2022)]. The nonlinear equations are useful for the study of magnetized plasma systems at scales comparable to, or larger than the ion gyroradius. In particular, it is suited for the study the kinetic turbulent cascade in astrophysical plasma, while preserving finite Larmor radius effects at the fluid-kinetic transition. The equations solved are in spectral Fourier-Laguerre-Hermite form, a pseudo-spectral approach is used for the nonlinear terms, and the code is parallelised over multiple directions. After a presentation of the code, validation runs are shown, and benchmarks for serial and parallel computations are presented. |
