dc.description.abstractMagnetic pickup loops inserted into the Macrotor tokamak have shown a broad spectrum of oscillation in 𝐵ᵣ and 𝐵ₚ up to f≈100 kHz. The high-frequency 𝐵ᵣ have short radial and poloidal correlation lengths L < 5, in contrast with the usual Mirnov oscillations with 𝑓≈7 kHz and 𝐿≫5 cm. The observed magnitude 𝛴⁢|𝐵ᵣ| / 𝐵ₜ >10⁻⁵, where the summation extends over all f>30 kHz, is in the range in which such radial magnetic perturbations may be contributing to anomalous electron energy transport.
