Latest research of intermittent transport in SOL of the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak is presented. Near the separatrix the fluctuations of the plasma and the floating potentials, measured by various Langmuir probes (LPs), are found to be anti-correlated due to fluctuations of the electron temperature. This indicates that, in contrast to a widely used experimental practice, a free exchange of both potentials is unjustified and can lead to significant error. Measurements of ion energies in turbulent L-mode and ELM filaments were carried out using a retarding field analyzer. In L-mode plasma, the filament ion temperature measured at 2 cm outside the separatrix is 80-110 eV, i.e., 3-4x the background ion temperature. The paper discusses further many other related topics.
