چکیده

We discuss aspects of imaging of plasma turbulence, taking the standpoint that the imaging is a path for induction of law from complex signals. An example of induction of symbol from signals is illustrated. Then the image of plasma turbulence is extended, putting an emphasis on the identification of the nonlinear interaction in turbulence. By employing the bipspectral method, magnitudes of interactions among excited modes are estimated. Interactions between microscopic turbulence and large-scale structures are demonstrated, providing our understanding of structure formation in turbulent plasmas.

Images of Turbulence in a Tokamak Plasma

Two-dimensional measurements of density fluctuations in the DIII-D tokamak, obtained with the Beam Emission Spectroscopy diagnostic, have allowed for construction of images and movies of plasma turbulence which are greatly aiding an understanding of tokamak turbulence phenomena. The measurements are obtained in the radial and poloidal plane at a spatial resolution of near 1 cm (about five ion g...

Visible imaging of gas puffs has been used on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak to characterize edge plasma turbulence, yielding data that can be compared with plasma turbulence codes. Simulations of these experiments with the DEGAS 2 Monte Carlo neutral transport code have been carried out to explore the relationship between the plasma fluctuations and the observed light emission. By imposing two-dime...

Decorrelation of edge plasma turbulence at the transition from low- to high-confinement mode in the DIII–D Tokamak

The modification of turbulence in the edge plasma of the DIII–D tokamak at the transition from the low to the high mode of confinement is investigated with a phase-contrast imaging diagnostic. The amplitude and radial correlation length of the turbulence in the confinement region decrease at the transition, whereas the decorrelation time increases. The transition w Ž . x model of Biglari, Diamo...
