The high-resolution Thomson Scattering system (located in sector D2, φ = 14.5°) provides electron temperature, density, and pressure profiles at a single time in the discharge. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] The laser chord is inclined by 17° from the vertical. The number of data points along the chord can vary from shot to shot depending on magnetic configuration, the shape of actual plasma, the influence of stray light level on data quality, etc; typically, it is of the order of 200. The estimated spatial resolution of diagnostic is approximately 2.4 mm. Due to a delay between the software trigger and the firing of the laser, the Thomson Scattering measurement occurs 6.4 ms after the trigger time stored in the database. Signal names in the TJ-II database: 'PerfilRho_', 'PerfilTe_', 'PerfildTe_', 'PerfilNe_', 'PerfildNe_', 'PerfilPe_', 'PerfildPe_'.
