Abstract:
This is a report on fluctuation measurements using twin heavy ion beam probes in CHS. The observation shows that a dozen of coherent modes with intermittent nature coexist in an electron cyclotron heated plasma. The modes are found to have long-distance correlation in toroidal direction. The radial structure of the modes are evaluated in potential fluctuation. The characteristics are not in contradictory with geodesic acoustic modes.
