摘要
A new transition mechanism to Alfven chaos via boundary crisis is reported. This crisis appears in a complex plasma region in the presence of a large number of coexisting attractors. We characterize an example of double boundary crises using the unstable periodic orbit determined from the numerical solution of the driven-dissipative derivative nonlinear Schrodinger equation, and demonstrate how the same unstable periodic orbit causes the appearance/disappearance of two chaotic attractors due to two successive homoclinic tangencies.
