Description of the activity
Rational: The evolution of the ion temperature (Ti) has been previously investigated using RFA measurements during the transition from the electron-root to the ion-root in the Scrape-Off-Layer (SOL) region in TJ-II. As line-averaged density increases above a threshold value, the edge radial electric field reverses from positive to negative values, as predicted by the neoclassical electron-to-ion root transition. Results show a significant decrease in the SOL ion temperature (in the range of 10 – 20 eV) concomitant with the reduction of edge-SOL turbulence spreading controlled by edge radial electric fields [1].
Research goals: The goal of the experiment would be to study the influence of edge radial electric fields on SOL Ti profiles. With this goal it is proposed to measure the radial profile of Ti in electron and ion root scenarios in ECRH plasmas and NBI regimes.
