Title: Theory, simulation, and experimental studies of zonal flows

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/758242· OSTI ID:758242

The authors report on current theoretical understanding of the characteristics of self-generated zonal flows as observed in nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of toroidal ITG turbulence [Science 281, 1835 (1998)], and discuss various possibilities for experimental measurements of signature of zonal flows.
