摘要
Steady state full noninductive current tore supra plasmas offer a unique opportunity to study the local parametric dependence of particle pinch velocity, in order to discriminate among different theories. Magnetic field shear is found to generate an inward pinch which is dominant in the gradient region (normalized radius 0.3less than or equal tor/aless than or equal to0.6). In contrast, the direction of the pinch in the plasma core (r/aless than or equal to0.3) is correlated with the electron temperature gradient length. The results are in agreement with both the turbulent theoretical and computational predictions.
