Description
Spontaneous formation of multipole vortices in an ECR plasma is experimentally examined to investigate self-organization and structure formation in a rotating plasma. These vortices are characterized by steep density profiles with the peak densities 4-5 times higher than that of background plasmas. The vortex pattern does not move with time, while the plasma rotates in the direction of electron diamagnetic drift. It is found that there exists axial flow reversal in the rim of vortices. (author)
