Dimensionality of fluctuations in ASDEX

Description

Dimensionality analysis of experimental series of data has revealed a new powerful tool for a deeper understanding or turbulent physical systems. The analysis of the so-called strange attractors provides a tool to identify the fractal dimension ν of a time series. This fractal dimension is associated with the number of independent processes which characterize the system, and if it exists, it provides a distinction between deterministic chaos and noise.
