Description: The NdYag laser used for Blow Off experiments will be focussed into the vacuum vessel opposite to it. The local power density will be controlled by a lens, in order to produce the right dose of Li compatible with normal plasma operation, similar to those induced by pellet injection now. Once this is achieved, a devoted Li source will be located near the wall to have a reproducible supply of Li. Eventually, a real Dollop injector will be developed. | Description: The NdYag laser used for Blow Off experiments will be focussed into the vacuum vessel opposite to it.

The transport of the injected Li ions will be monitored at a given toroidal distance from the injection through its emission and the time trace will be used to deduce the kinetic energy at this location. A simple thermalization model will be used to deduce the Ti value of the plasma.The resulting Ti value will be compared with other diagnostics (RFA, Doppler, NPA...) | |||
Requirements. High density plasmas (NBI) seem better suited due to a lower perturbation of the line density by the injected Li, although power balance considerations may suggest otherwise (ECRH). Frequent entrances to the TJII hall are foreseen at the beginning. Characteristic signatures of FW state (recycling, density control, impurities , radiation,..) will be monitored. | Requirements.
