Numerical simulation of Kolmogorov spectra of long-wavelength drift turbulence

A numerical simulation of long-wavelength drift turbulence governed by a Hasegawa-Mima type equation is carried out. The obtained spectra are compared with analytical results of the theory of weak Kolmogorov turbulence.
