Abstract

Plasma drift or rotation is caused at the edge of tokamaks by various mechanisms including flow to surfaces and neutral injection. These drift velocities can be measured using electrostatic probes and a theory is presented providing a method of probe analysis to deduce drift velocity, plasma density, and temperature. Initial probe experiments using this probe analysis yield credible values of drift velocity, but comparison with an independent technique, e.g., spectroscopic Doppler shifts, is sought. OFF
