Abstract

The results are described of measurements of the magnitude of the transverse plasma energy in a Tokamak machine, from a diamagnetic signal. It is shown that, for conditions in which the discharge current axis coincides within the limits of experimental error with the axis of the discharge vessel, the electron temperature measured by this method agrees with that calculated from the conductivity. A difference is observed only when the discharge is heated at low initial hydrogen pressures and the current axis is displaced towards the inside wall of the vessel.
