Microtearing turbulence in an idealized pedestal scenario is found to saturate via zonal fields, while also exciting strong zonal flows; a concurrent upshift of the non-linear critical gradient is observed. The zonal flows cause electron-temperature-gradient-driven turbulence to be ameliorated. When applying resonant magnetic perturbations, the prompt charge loss off the flux surface erodes the zonal flow, leading to higher electron-scale fluxes, while leaving microtearing saturation physics unaffected.

托卡马克基座上微撕裂湍流的多尺度相互作用

人们发现，在理想的基座情况下，微撕裂湍流会通过纬向场饱和，同时也会激发强烈的纬向流。观察到非线性临界梯度的同时升档。纬向流使电子温度梯度驱动的湍流得到改善。当施加共振磁扰动时，通量表面的迅速电荷损失会侵蚀区域流，导致更高的电子级通量，同时不影响微撕裂的饱和物理学。
