title: Exit time of turbulent signals: a way to detect the intermediate dissipative range.
abstract: The exit-time statistics of experimental turbulent data is analyzed. By looking at the exit-time moments (inverse structure functions) it is possible to have a direct measurement of scaling properties of the laminar statistics. It turns out that the inverse structure functions show a much more extended intermediate dissipative range than the structure functions, leading to the first clear evidence of the existence of such a range of scales.
