Abstract:Relaxations of localized over-density in a plane transverse to the magnetic field are numerically
investigated under the effect of drift-wave and interchange drives in SOL conditions. Such a controlled
departure from thermodynamic equilibrium allows the investigation of fundamental processes
at play in cross-field transport. Interchange instabilities generate ballistic outward radial flux with
low amplitude zonal flow patterns, whereas drift-wave instabilities result in symmetri… Show more
