Abstract

We discuss the measurement of the electric field drift (E→xB→ velocity) and its spatial derivatives in a low temperature magnetized plasma by means of a suitably arranged multi-pin Langmuir probe. Results are presented relating the properties of the velocity field and its electrostatic fluctuations. In particular, we have measured components of the non-linear terms in the fluid magnetohydrodynamics equation.
