In magnetic nuclear fusion plasmas, plasma particle transport causes the decrease of density and stored energy. Plasma particle and thermal energy are lost across the confinement magnetic field lines by the turbulence of thermodynamics force and instability. We studied the characteristics of flute-type fluctuation by using the gold neutral beam probe (GNBP) and electrostatic probes.
