Response of a weakly ionized plasma to turbulent gas flow.

TL;DR: In this paper, an arc discharge struck in a stream of flowing argon gas is studied as the flow is increased from the laminar regime to the regime of fully developed pipe turbulence, with Reynolds numbers (Re) ranging from zero to 6300.

Drift wave propagation as a source of plasma edge turbulence: Toroidal theory

Nathan Mattor
- 01 Dec 1994 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that a wave launched in the core region can propagate over a substantial portion of the radius, reaching the edge from the core, and a new theory to explain the observed correlation between edge shear flows and improved confinement (‘‘H’’ modes) is given.

Numerical simulations of electrostatic hydrogen cyclotron instabilities

TL;DR: In this paper, both one and two-dimensional particle simulation models have been used to study the nonlinear behavior of the electrostatic hydrogen cyclotron instabilities driven by the electron current along the magnetic field.

Envelope soliton of random phase waves

Akira Hasegawa
- 01 Dec 1977 - 
TL;DR: The shape of the envelope soliton of random phase waves, which is considered to have an arbitrary form, is obtained using moment equations of the wave kinetic equation in this paper, where the shape is assumed to have a uniform shape.

Instabilities and nonlinear processes in geophysics and astrophysics

TL;DR: In this article, a review of nonlinear effects related to plasma instabilities is presented, including quasilinear diffusion, anomalous resistivity, wave-wave and waveparticle interactions, and modulational instability.
