Abstract
Long-wavelength ( 0.5% exist for <2 with radial and poloidal correlation lengths typically 1–2.5 cm in the confinement region, corresponding to ≊0.1–0.3. An anisotropic wave-number spectrum is observed, and estimates of the turbulence-driven transport are comparable to the anomalous transport observed in tokamaks.
