Abstract

In the driven/damped drift-wave plasma system a collision of the weak chaotic attractor with a saddle point is demonstrated at the crisis that induces a transition from a spatially coherent state to spatiotemporal chaos (STC). The phenomenon of the collision is consistent with the previous observation of the ‘pattern resonance’ that triggers the crisis. Subsequent to the collision, before the system is ejected to the STC attractor, there is evidence of another critical dynamic event involving state transition of a mode phase. The second event plays a crucial role in the destruction of the spatial coherence.
