(a) Time evolution of the kinetic energy Ekykin for the zonal component with k_yρ_i = 0.0, long wavelength tearing mode with dominating wavenumber k_yρ_i = 0.05, and short wavelength ITG modes with dominating wavenumber k_yρ_i = 0.5. Inset: the amplification of (a) in the time interval t ∈ [0,2000]. Here, Ekykin=12〈 | ∇ϕ∼ky |2 〉=12∫−LxLx∇ϕ∼ky⋅∇ϕ∼ky∗dx is the average kinetic energy of the fluctuations for different k_y.
