Abstract
We report on the measurement of the edge ion temperature in TJ-II plasmas, heated by electron cyclotron waves and neutral beam injection, using passive spectroscopy of impurity ions in low ionization stages. The measurements, which provide both temporal and some spatial resolution, offer some advantages over more intrusive or more sophisticated methods. The capabilities and limitations of this approach are illustrated by showing typical results obtained under conditions of interest for fusion plasmas.
