摘要: The dynamics of long-wavelength ($k_\theta<1.4$ cm$^{-1}$), broadband (20 kHz-200 kHz) electron temperature fluctuations ($\tilde T_{\rm e}/T_{\rm e}$) of plasmas in gas-puff experiments are observed for the first time in HL-2A tokamak. In a relatively low density ($n_{\rm e}(0) \simeq 0.91 \times10^{19}$$\rm m^{-3}$-$1.20 \times10^{19}$$\rm m^{-3}$) scenario, after gas-puffing the core temperature increases and the edge temperature drops. On the contrary, temperature fluctuation drops at the core and increases at the edge. Analyses show the non-local emergence is accompanied with a long radial coherent length of turbulent fluctuations. While in a higher density ($n_{\rm e}(0) \simeq 1.83 \times10^{19}$ m$^{-3}$-$2.02 \times10^{19}$ m$^{-3}$) scenario, the phenomena are not observed. Furthermore, compelling evidence indicates that $\bm{E} \times \bm{B}$ shear serves as a substantial contributor to this extensive radial interaction. This finding offers a direct explanatory link to the intriguing core-heating phenomenon witnessed within the realm of non-local transport.
