Theoretical reversed field pinch and tokamak studies

Description

In previous work, electrostatic fluctuations that couple the free energy sources of resistive interchange turbulence (resistive g mode) and resistivity gradient driven turbulence (Rippling mode) were studied analytically and numerically. Evaluation of the predicted fluctuation levels using realistic MST parameters and the best estimates of equilibrium profiles yielded levels that appeared to be too small to agree with experiment. This work calls into question the standard scenario in which g modes (or rippling modes) are presumed to govern edge transport and account for the high frequency fluctuation activity in the RFP
