The origin of the slow solar wind is still an open issue. One possibility that has been suggested is that upflows at the edge of an active region can contribute to the slow solar wind. We aim to explain how the plasma upflows are generated,…

The dynamics of long-wavelength ($k_\theta<1.4 \mathrm{\ cm^{-1}}$), broadband (20-200 kHz) electron temperature fluctuations ($\tilde T_e/T_e$) of plasmas in gas-puff experiments were observed for the first time in HL-2A tokamak. In a…

Density fluctuations in the ionised interstellar medium have a profound effect on radio pulsar observations, through angular scattering, intensity scintillations, and small changes in time delays from dispersion. Here we show that it is…
