The instabilities observed in many magnetic confinement devices induce radial particle transport. Density and potential fluctuations were measured using a gold neutral beam probe in GAMMA 10. The plasma stored energy repeatedly increases and decreases during ion- cyclotron range of frequency heating. A drift-type fluctuation was observed in both the density and the potential as the plasma stored energy decreased. These results indicated a correlation between the radial particle transport induced by drift-type fluctuations and decreasing plasma stored energy.
