Abstract

An edge toroidal charge exchange recombination spectroscopy (eCXRS) diagnostic has been deployed successfully on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) recently, providing edge plasma ion temperature and toroidal rotation. Edge CXRS on EAST typically monitors the carbon vi (529.059 nm, n = 8 → 7) spectral line. Spectral lines emitted from other different impurities that appeared in the wavelength ranges of 528 nm-530 nm illustrate the need to revise the edge change exchange spectra analysis in this region. Since the eCXRS sightlines end on the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) stainless steel antenna, the passive Fe lines coming from the antenna could be recorded by eCXRS diagnostic when ICRF is used. A revised edge toroidal charge exchange spectra analysis including Fe spectral lines is presented. The accuracy of eCXRS measurement has been improved by the revised spectra analysis.
