Abstract

Spatially-resolved spectral measurement of a hydrogen pellet ablation cloud has been conducted in the Large Helical Device. Least square fittings of one of the obtained spectrum are inconsistent when the complete local thermodynamic equilibrium (CLTE) condition is supposed. A better agreement is found when a more general spectral model is used. The electron density of 1.4 × 1023 m−3 obtained is similar to that obtained in a previous study [M. Goto et al., Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 49, 1163 (2007)]. The electron temperature of 0.4 eV is however significantly lower than the value of 1 eV derived in the same previous study.
