Study of inward particle flux in a multi-instability plasma system

<p> We report the observation of a net inward, up-gradient turbulent particle flux which occurs when a collisional drift waves generate a sufficiently strong radially sheared azimuthal zonal flow in a cylindrical magnetized plasma. At low magnetic fields (B&le;1.0 kG), particle transport i...
