2 Motivations for edge/sol turbulence studies Both L- and H-mode plasma regimes exhibit strong edge and scrape-off-layer turbulence in most laboratory discharges Our present understanding of this turbulence is insufficient to explain or predict major characteristics of these plasmas The turbulence of the edge region is often very different from that of the SOL the dynamics of these differences are of high interest for an insight to blob generation The edge flow shear region is believed to be very important in transport and confinement

LaBombard et al., JNM 313, 995 (3) The localization of the shear region and magnitudes match probe Distance into SOL at Midplane (mm) measurements Instead of a smooth profile, an abrupt change is observed in the measured velocities, together with a 5 1 mm wide crossover region just outside the separatrix separatrix Fitted velocity (km/s) Comparison to probe measurements shows important differences Propagation velocities are largely invariant in the region!

20 Summary Measurements showed a clear radial structure with high resolution in both r and k space Two distinct, well defined velocities and a rapid switching in their crossover region Found an indication of correlation between blob ejections and edge kick in the electron diamagnetic drift direction Produced a database of blobs sorted according to size, time and velocity shown more complex statistical features than our single correlation or wavenumber studies Possible to find size-velocity relationship
