The sheared flow is generated by the turbulence itself via the Reynolds Stress mechanism. | The sheared flow is generated by the turbulence itself via the Reynolds Stress mechanism. | ||
Thus, the H-mode is the consequence of a self-organizing process in the plasma. | |||
The details of this mechanism are the subject of ongoing studies. | The details of this mechanism are the subject of ongoing studies. | ||
