Imaging of turbulent structures and tomographic reconstruction of GyM plasma emissivity

Ivo Furno, Davoud Iraji

In GyM, a linear magnetized plasma device, low-frequency electrostatic fluctuations are measured by means of Langmuir probes. To complement electrostatic probe measurements of plasma turbulence and the study of plasma structures, a nonperturbative direct i ...

Blob current structures in TORPEX plasmas: experimental measurements and numerical simulations

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Davoud Iraji, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Diane Virginie Marie Lançon, Nicola Vianello

In the simple magnetized torus TORPEX, field-aligned blobs originate from ideal interchange waves and propagate radially outward due to del B and curvature induced drifts. Time-resolved two-dimensional measurements of the field-aligned current density J(pa ...

Blob motion and control in simple magnetized plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Benoît Labit, Davoud Iraji, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler

The radial propagation of plasma blobs and possibilities of influencing it are investigated in the TORPEX toroidal experiment [Fasoli et al., Phys. Plasmas 13, 055902 (2006)]. The effect of changing the connection length and the neutral background pressure ...

Imaging of turbulent structures and tomographic reconstruction of TORPEX plasma emissivity

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Davoud Iraji, Christian Gabriel Theiler

In the TORPEX [ A. Fasoli et al., Phys. Plasmas 13, 055902 (2006) ], a simple magnetized plasma device, low frequency electrostatic fluctuations associated with interchange waves, are routinely measured by means of extensive sets of Langmuir probes. To com ...

Statistical properties of electrostatic turbulence in toroidal magnetized plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Jan Horacek, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Benoît Labit, Gennady Plyushchev, Davoud Iraji, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler

A unique parabolic relation is observed to link skewness and kurtosis of density fluctuation signals, measured over the whole cross-section of the simple toroidal device TORPEX for a broad range of experimental conditions. This relationship is also valid f ...
