Scientific paper

Experimental data from an experiment on drift--waves in plasma is presented. The experiment provides a space--time diagnostic and has a control parameter that permits the study of the transition from a stable plasma to a turbulent plasma. The biorthogonal decomposition is used to analyse the data. We introduce the notion of complex modulation for two--dimensional systems. We decompose the real physical system into complex modulated monochromatic travelling waves and give a simple model describing the speed doubling observed in the data as the control parameter increases.
