Symmetry breaking in MAST plasma turbulence due to toroidal flow shear
M. F. J. Fox, F. van Wyk, A. R. Field +3
The flow shear associated with the differential toroidal rotation of tokamak plasmas breaks an underlying symmetry of the turbulent fluctuations imposed by the up-down symmetry of…
Experimental determination of the correlation properties of plasma turbulence using 2D BES systems
M. F. J. Fox, A. R. Field, F. van Wyk +3
A procedure is presented to map from the spatial correlation parameters of a turbulent density field (the radial and binormal correlation lengths and wavenumbers, and the fluctuati…
Transition to subcritical turbulence in a tokamak plasma
F. van Wyk, E. G. Highcock, A. A. Schekochihin +3
Tokamak turbulence, driven by the ion-temperature gradient and occurring in the presence of flow shear, is investigated by means of local, ion-scale, electrostatic gyrokinetic simu…
