Abstract

Soft-x-ray (5–300 Å) spectra of intrinsic impurities have been recorded with a high-resolution multichannel XUV spectrometer (SOXMOS). Measurements of line intensity ratios as a function of time are applied to the determination of the impurity contribution to the energy balance. Results from TFTR Ohmic heated plasmas, including radiation due to carbon, oxygen, iron, nickel, chromium, titanium, and zirconium, are presented. The spatial ion distribution will be directly observed by a radial scanning spectrometer (FLOPSY). This instrument, under construction, will cover the spectral range from 1500 to 7000 Å and use mirrors and lenses for fast scanning. The spatial ion distribution, deduced from forbidden and allowed lines, will be compared to both theoretical models based on impurity concentrations and transport coefficients, as well as experimental data from bolometer measurements.
