In the present experiment, we therefore plan to repeat the iota scan experiments while applying a radial electric field, induced via probe biasing.
In the present experiment, we therefore plan to repeat the iota scan experiments while applying a radial electric field, induced via probe biasing.


The plan is to scan iota between configurations 100_40 and 100_44, while the B and D Langmuir probes are located at ρ ≃ 0.85 (the reason being that this scan will move the important 8/5 rational surface across the Langmuir probe location, based on the results from the latest paper cited). The applied voltage to the biasing probe will be [-300, -150, 0, 150, 300], making 5 discharges at each voltage to verify reproducibility.
The plan is to scan iota between configurations 100_40 (or 100_38) and 100_44, while the B and D Langmuir probes are located at <math>\rho \simeq 0.85-0.90</math> (the reason being that this scan will move the important 8/5 rational surface across the Langmuir probe location, based on the results from the latest paper cited).

Apart from intermittence, we will quantify all other turbulence parameters that can be measured by the probes: <math>V_f, I_{\rm sat}, E_r, E_\theta, v_\theta, \Gamma</math>, the RMS of various quantities, long-range correlations between probes B and D, cross phase (between <math>E_\theta, I_{\rm sat}</math>), etc.<ref>B. van Milligen, B.
