In Search of the Elusive Zonal Flow Using Cross-Bicoherence Analysis

TL;DR: Experimental measurements of the spatiotemporal evolution of the spectrum integrated bicoherence at the L-->H transition near the edge shear layer indicate a modification in the nonlinear phase coupling, which might be linked to the generation of sheared ExB flows.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analytic solution for self-regulated collective escape of cosmic rays from their acceleration sites

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-similar solution for a galactic cosmic ray (CR) cloud released by a dimmed accelerator strongly deviates from the test-particle result, where the escaping CR and the Alfven waves excited by them are treated on an equal footing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secondary instability in drift wave turbulence as a mechanism for zonal flow and avalanche formation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the secondary instability as a mechanism for zonal flow generation, transport barrier dynamics and avalanche formation in drift-ion temperature gradient turbulence and reported on recent developments in the theory of secondary instability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism for spectral break in cosmic ray proton spectrum of supernova remnant W44

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that strong ion-neutral collisions in the remnant surrounding lead to the steepening of the energy spectrum of accelerated particles by exactly one power.
