Abstract

The action of a set of ergodic magnetic limiters in tokamaks is investigated from the Hamiltonian chaotic scattering point of view. Special attention is paid to the influence of invariant sets, such as stable and unstable manifolds, as well as the strange saddle, on the formation of the chaotic layer at the plasma edge. The nonuniform escape process associated to chaotic field lines is also analyzed. It is shown that the ergodic layer produced by the limiters has not only a fractal structure, but it possesses the even more restrictive Wada property.
