Abstract

A spectroscopy system, which consists of a zigzag charge coupled device and ferroelectric liquid crystal cells, has been developed to measure magnetic field pitch angles. The magnetic field pitch angle is derived from the polarization angle of σ and π components in the Hα line measured with polarization sensitive spectroscopy. By using the spectroscopy system, the location of zero pitch angle is measured to shift outboard due to the Pfirsh–Schluter current by 28±16 mm. This shift is consistent with that predicted by an equilibrium code.
