Scientific paper
The interaction between broadband drill mode turbulence and zonal flows is an important topic associated with transport at plasma boundaries. The generation of zonal flows by the modulational instability of broad band drift waves has resulted in the observation of self organized solitary wave structures at the magnetopause. To understand these structures and their importance in space and astrophysical plasmas we have developed a unique numerical simulation code that describes drift wave - zonal flow turbulence. We show that observations by cluster space craft confirms the role of drift wave zonal Mow turbulence at the Earth's magnetopause and further demonstrates that the magnetopause boundary acts in a similar manner to transport barriers in tokamak fusion devices. Applications to other plasmas will also be presented.
