Many advances in understanding space plasma phenomena have been linked to insight
derived from theoretical modeling and/or laboratory experiments. Advances for which …

As there are a significant number of observed onset conditions for the post‐sunset
equatorial spread F that are not evidently associated with the required (5%) seed …

In order to achieve in configuration space a dimensional reduction from dimension two to
one, the lowest Landau level (LLL) projection is not sufficient. One has also, once in the LLL …

Low‐frequency turbulence has been studied in a plasma embedded in a pure toroidal
magnetic field. A study of the variation of the spectral characteristics of the low‐frequency …

Detailed measurements of density and floating potential in the poloidal cross section of a
toroidal plasma with an extended source at the minor axis are presented in the first half of …

A detailed numerical simulation of the nonlinear state of the Rayleigh–Taylor instability has
been carried out. There are three distinct phases of evolution where it is governed by the (i) …

Equilibrium, stability, and confinement in currentless toroidal device is studied in the terms of
the flow-fluctuation cycle. In the initial seed equilibrium provided by the limiter, Rayleigh …

Equilibrium and confinement in currentless toroidal devices is explained in terms of a flow-
fluctuation cycle. The initial limiter equilibrium is shown to get fortified via fluctuation driven …

We report production of hydrogen plasma using a 2.45 GHz microwave source in a toroidal
device BETA (Bora D 1989 Phys. Lett. 139A 308). The equilibrium density, floating potential …

Low frequency electrostatic fluctuations (ω< Ωi) travelling in E× B direction are observed in a
laboratory plasma simulating conditions similar to night time equatorial F‐region. The …
