From: Effects of plasma turbulence on the nonlinear evolution of magnetic island in tokamak
a The 2D relative change of Te around the magnetic island during a short period of Te collapse. The temporal range of #1–#4 are indicated by red dotted lines at the top of (b). b Te measurements (black) at position I (marked on the #2 image in a) and the root-mean-square amplitude of the normalized Te fluctuation (red) at the X-point. c, d The 2D strength of the Te turbulence for the period C and D, respectively.
