摘要
In an experimental realization of the sheared cylindrical slab, the level of plasmaturbulence is strongly reduced by application of a sufficient bias potential difference in the radialdirection. Density fluctuation levels Δnrms/n decrease by more than a factor of five. The ionflow velocity profile is measured spectroscopically from the Doppler shift of an argon ion line.Comparison of the shearing rates with the turbulent amplitudes as a function of bias show norelation between the shearing rate and turbulence reduction, contrary to expectations.
