It is known that strong interactions exist in astrophysical plasmas and fusion plasmas among turbulence, magnetic reconnection phenomena and dynamics of magnetic island formation. It is because the non-linear interactions and exchanges of energy take place between the microscopic turbulent processes and the large-scale structural formation of the magnetic islands. We will use the 5D gyrokinetic framework, a reduced kinetic model, which is the most advanced theory of micro-turbulence in magnetic fusion plasmas, for studying important physics problems in these phenomena such as 1) the analysis of the dynamic processes triggering the magnetic reconnection phenomena, 2) the interactions between the turbulent processes and magnetic island formation.
