Global bifurcation destroying the experimental torus<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:msup><mml:mi>T</mml:mi><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:msup></mml:math>
We show experimentally the scenario of a two-frequency torus ${T}^{2}$ breakdown, in which a global bifurcation occurs due to the collision of a torus with an unstable periodic orbit, creating a heteroclinic saddle connection, followed by an intermittent behavior.
