Figure 3

Temporal evolution of BFs (\(\rho \approx 0.4\)) and Te (\(\rho \approx 0.45\)) for NB-powers of (a) 8 MW, (b) 10 MW, (c) 11 MW, and (d) 12 MW when \(q_{min}\) crosses 5. Black dashed circles in (c) shows the typical short-time decay of Te associated with BFs. Conditionally averaged (e) BFs and (f) normalized electron heat flux at 11 MW discharge. (g) Radial profiles of increment of electron stored energy (\(\Delta W/\Delta t\)) and time-averaged bursty-components of electron heat flux multiplied with plasma surface (\(S \cdot \overline{q}_{e,burst}\)).
