Abstract
Single shot, multipoint ion temperature and plasma rotation profiles have been routinely obtained on the Doublet III tokamak for 32 consecutive time slices with 20-ms resolution. A six-chord tangentially viewing spectroscopic diagnostic has been built to look at radiation emitted by fully stripped low-Z impurity ions (He, C, O) that have undergone charge exchange recombination with hydrogen atoms from a 3-MW heating beam. The main components of the instrument are a single monochromator for wavelength dispersion, a single image intensifier tube for photon gain, and a pair of 1024-element linear photodiode arrays for detection. A special arrangement of fiber optics allows simultaneous data acquisition from all chords without the use of scanning mirrors or other moving parts. Ion temperature profiles taken under a variety of plasma conditions will be presented.
