Description
The effects of boundaries are studied in a new calculation of three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in a reversed-field pinch configuration. Our model, which assumes a Gibbs distribution of the turbulent fields, predicts magnetohydrodynamic fluctuations about a Bessel-function-model mean magnetic field. The effects of these fluctuations can be seen in a calculable field autocorrelation tensor
