Abstract
Multifaceted asymmetric radiation from the edge (MARFE) is considered as an example of dissipative structures which develop under critical conditions in different physical and technical systems. The model proposed results in a system of algebraic equation including a relation similar to Maxwell’s Rule that determines such characteristic parameters as the plasma temperature in MARFE, its extent in poloidal and radial directions. Predictions of this approximate approach are compared with the results of one- and two-dimensional numerical simulations.Keywords
