Intermittency in the heat and particle transports in the SINP tokamak scrape-off layer
- Plasma Physics Division, Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, 1/AF Bidhannagar, Kolkata-700064 (India)
The intermittent heat and particle transports have been studied in the scrape-off layer of the SINP tokamak. Properties of the plasma structures, responsible for the intermittency, have been measured by the conditional averaging technique. The probability distribution functions of the fluctuations, including temperature fluctuations, obey non-Gaussian statistics. Wavelet analysis has shown that the cross-correlation between two probes is also intermittent in time and is connected to the passage of plasma structures. The structures decay in density as they move radially outward but their temperature is found to decay more rapidly.
