It is argued here that the inner heliosphere is filled with a network of entangled magnetic flux
tubes and that the flux tubes are fossil structures that originate at the solar surface. 65,860 …

The energetic interaction between drift-wave turbulence and zonal flows is studied
experimentally in two-dimensional wave number space. The kinetic energy is found to be …

Via nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations, microturbulent transport is investigated for
electromagnetic trapped electron mode (TEM) and ion temperature gradient (ITG) tokamak …

A detailed analysis of the energy transfer system between ExB turbulence and zonal flows is
given. Zonal flows, driven by the ExB Reynolds stress of the turbulence, are coupled to …

The basic scales of motion and computational requirements for low frequency fluid drift
turbulence are summarized in tutorial fashion, with emphasis on the tokamak edge region …

The frequency behaviour and localization of the geodesic acoustic mode (GAM), believed to
be a coherent plasma turbulence-generated E r× B zonal flow (ZF) oscillation, is studied in …

In magnetically confined fusion experiments, turbulent transport dominates over collisional
transport in the edge gradient region and in the scrape-off layer (SOL). Traditionally …

In toroidally confined plasmas, background E× B flows, microturbulence and zonal flows
constitute a tightly coupled dynamic system and the description of confinement transitions …

The edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) region of a tokamak plasma is considered, with
emphasis on sheared flow generation and the dynamics of blob-filaments. Both numerical …

Some of the crucial physics aspects of burning plasmas magnetically confined in toroidal
systems are presented from the viewpoint of nonlinear dynamics. Most of the discussions …
