Collaborative Research: Analysis of wave mode content in fully turbulent, moderately collisional plasma laboratory experiment and kinetic simulation

Our major goal for the project is to make magnetic and Langmuir-probe-based density fluctuations measurements using identical diagnostic and acquisition setups on two different laboratory-based turbulent plasma devices: SSX at Swarthmore College and a new plasma source in development at Bryn Mawr College (BMX). We propose to generate single-point correlation and k-filtering metrics using these experimental measurements. These metrics will be compared directly to kinetic simulations of the experimental environments in order to determine wave mode content of the laboratory turbulence.
