Padé-based arbitrary wavelength polarization closures for full-F gyro-kinetic and -fluid models

We propose a solution to the long-standing short wavelength polarization closure shortfall of full-F gyro-fluid models. This is achieved by first finding an appropriate quadratic form of the gyro-fluid moment over the polarization part of the gyro-center Hamiltonian. Secondly, we deduce Padé-based approximations to the latter expression that produce a polarization charge density with the desired order of accuracy and retain linear polarization effects for arbitrary wavelengths. The proposed closures feature proper energy conservation and the anticipated Oberbeck-Boussinesq and long wavelength limits.
