Ea. Azizov et al., INVESTIGATION OF THE TSP DISCHARGE DYNAMICS BY MEANS OF HIGH-RESOLUTION SPECTROSCOPY, Plasma physics reports, 22(1), 1996, pp. 34-42
The radiation emitted by plasma impurities in the TSP high-field tokam
ak is studied by means of spectroscopic diagnostics. The resulting dat
a are used to explain the behavior of the plasma column at the stage o
f discharge preceding the plasma compression. The experimental optical
data are compared with the results of both the measurements and the n
umerical simulation of the behavior of the plasma column.
