Résumé : | The models of Vekshtein, Ryutov & Sagdeev (VRS), describing a marginally stable turbulent plasma sustaining an electric current, are shown to be incomplete by their neglect of the equations determining the spectral densities of the driving modes. An exhaustive study of these models, including a detailed determination of the frequencies, spectral densities and turbulent energy densities, shows that, strictly speaking, there exists no self-similar turbulent state (SSTS). However, an approximate SSTS can be constructed, based on the finding that the tail of the spectral densities behaves self-similarly. © 1980, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved. |
