Abstract
The evolution of the poloidal magnetic field profile during the initia l current ramp-up in the ISTTOK tokamak plasma has been followed with a heavy ion beam diagnostic. The experimental results are compared wit h numerical simulations. The validity of the retrieved poloidal field profiles is discussed. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
