Abstract

A global bifurcation scenario for a two-frequency torus breakdown depicted by Baptista and Caldas [Physica D 132, 325 (1999)] is observed on a glow-discharge experiment. The torus is broken through a crisis with an unstable periodic orbit. The torus section before the bifurcation is a sided polygon that has a number of edges equal to the period of the unstable orbit. Since the discharge is an extended system the two-frequency torus breakdown is shown to be a possible way to space-time chaos.
