We study a process of anomalous diffusion, based on intermittent velocity fluctuations, and we show that its scaling depends on whether we observe the motion of many independent trajectories or that of a Liouville-like equation driven…

In nonisothermal plasma at temperature T_e>> T_i diffusion plays decisive role at conditions of smooth inhomogeneity when the inhomogeneity size is larger than the Debye radius by more than {T_e/T_i}^1/2 times. When the inhomogeneity is…
