Blob-hole correlation model for edge turbulence and comparisons with NSTX gas puff imaging data

J R Myra, S J Zweben, D A Russell2018年Plasma Physics and Controlled FusionIF 2.2出版社

Gas puff imaging (GPI) observations made in NSTX (Zweben et al 2017 Phys. Plasmas24 102509) have revealed two‐point spatial correlations of edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) turbulence in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. A common feature is the occurrence of dipole-like patterns with significant regions of negative correlation. In this paper, we explore the possibility that these dipole patterns may be due to blob-hole pairs. Statistical methods are applied to determine the two-point spatial correlation that results from a model of blob-hole pair formation. It is shown that the model produces dipole correlation patterns that are qualitatively similar to the GPI data in several respects. Effects of the reference location (confined surfaces or SOL), a superimposed random background, hole velocity and lifetime, and background sheared flows are explored and discussed with respect to experimental observations. Additional analysis of the experimental GPI dataset is performed to further test this blob-hole correlation model. A time delay two‐point spatial correlation study did not reveal inward propagation of the negative correlation structures that were postulated to correspond to holes in the data nor did it suggest that the negative correlation structures are due to neutral shadowing. However, tracking of the highest and lowest values (extrema) of the normalized GPI fluctuations shows strong evidence for mean inward propagation of minima and outward propagation of maxima, in qualitative agreement with theoretical expectations. Other properties of the experimentally observed extrema are discussed.

ガスパフイメージング(GPI)観測は、NSTX(Zwebenら 2017 Phys. Plasmas 24 102509)において、磁場に垂直な面内での周辺およびスクレイプオフ層(SOL)乱流の二点空間相関を明らかにした。共通する特徴として、有意な負の相関領域を伴う双極子パターンの発生が挙げられる。本論文では、これらの双極子パターンがブロブ・ホール対に起因する可能性を探る。統計的手法を適用し、ブロブ・ホール対形成モデルから得られる二点空間相関を決定する。このモデルが、GPIデータと定性的に類似した双極子相関パターンを生成することが示される。基準位置(閉じ込め面またはSOL)、重畳されたランダム背景、ホールの速度と寿命、および背景せん断流の影響を検討し、実験観測との関連について考察する。さらに、実験GPIデータセットの追加解析を実施し、このブロブ・ホール対相関モデルを検証する。時間遅延二点空間相関解析では、データ中のホールに対応すると仮定された負の相関構造の内向き伝播は明らかにされず、また負の相関構造が中性粒子遮蔽に起因するという示唆も得られなかった。しかしながら、正規化GPI変動の極大値および極小値の追跡により、極小値の平均的な内向き伝播と極大値の平均的な外向き伝播に関する強い証拠が得られ、これは理論的予測と定性的に一致する。実験的に観測された極値のその他の特性についても考察する。
