Description of the activity, including motivation/objectives and experience of the proponent (typically one-two pages)

Motivation. In previous experiments of impurity confinement in TJ-II plasmas we have investigated the behavior of impurity confinement with the mass composition of the main ions and with charge/mass of the injected impurities [1]. Now we want to extend our study to He plasmas.

Proposal. Within the present proposal, we plan to inject light and heavy impurities into TJ-II ECRH plasmas by means of laser blow-off. We plan to study the behaviour of impurity confinement with the charge/mass of the main ions on the relaxation of emission of light and heavy impurities injected in TJ-II by laser blow-off. For that purpose we want discharges in He and study the impurity confinement as a function of effective mass.
