Abstract

Abstract Intensity ratios of various Be I and Be II lines measured in Be-seeded D and He plasmas in the PISCES-B linear divertor plasma simulator are compared with the corresponding ratios of the photon emissivity coefficient, PEC, calculated by ADAS. Agreement of measured intensity ratios with calculated PEC ratios is satisfactory within a factor of ∼2 for both Be I and Be II. It is proposed that a Be I line ratio of 234.8 nm/265.0 nm and a Be II line ratio of 467.3 nm/313.1 nm can be used to estimate the electron temperature, while a 265.0 nm/332.1 nm Be I line ratio is sensitive to the electron density. Further, S/XB values of a Be I line at 457.3 nm were experimentally determined from a ratio of the sputtered Be flux to the emission intensity. Measured values are systematically lower than calculated ADAS values, which may be explained by the increased sputtering yield of redeposited Be atoms.
