Abstract
This study employs a fast camera with frame rates up to 900,000 fps to measure the transfer of energy across spatial scales in helicon source plasmas and during flux rope mergers and the measurement of azimuthal mode structures in helicon plasmas. By extracting pixel-scale dispersion relations and power spectral density (PSD) measurements, we measure the details of turbulent wave modes and energy distribution across a broad range of spatial scales within the plasma. We confirm the presence of drift waves in helicon plasmas, as well as the existence of strong dissipation regions in the PSD at electron skin depth scales for both helicon and flux rope merger experiments. This approach overcomes many limitations of conventional probes, providing high spatial and temporal resolution, without perturbing the plasma.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
