Measurement of Cross-field Transport in a Magnetized Plasma Device

Methods for the characterization of radial convective transport in magnetized plasma devices are depicted. Perspectives for the investigation of transport using the linear low-beta plasma device Mirabelle are presented. The utility of time resolved data analysis, using the wavelet transform of the signals, is demonstrated. These techniques are illustrated by their application to experimental data from the Mirabelle device and from the Castor tokamak.
