Electron density of post-disruption runaway plasmas in JT-60U has been measured by the tangential CO
laser interferometer. Increases in electron density after the first drop of runaway plasma current have been observed during a fast termination phase of the runaway plasma. At the second current drop, an increase in electron density with multiple spikes or oscillation with the period of 1 ms has been found. It is suggested that the increased electron density seems to take part in the shorter current decay time after the second current drop.

Times Cited Count:23 Percentile:71.06(Instruments & Instrumentation)In order to measure the line average electron density on ITER, a CO
laser interferometer/polarimeter system is being developed. The design of the interferometer/polarimeter is improved from the previous design, which uses CO
and CO laser, on the basis of experience gained with a dual CO
system on JT-60U in which good reliability was confirmed for both interferometry and polarimetry operation. The performance of the dual CO
laser meets requirements for ITER (accuracy; 1%, time resolution; 1 ms).

The diagnostic system of JT-60U is composed of about 50 individual diagnostic devices. Recently, the detailed radial profile measurements of plasma parameters such as electron temperature, electron density, ion temperature, plasma rotation, and plasma current (safety factor q) have been improved. As a result, the understanding of internal structure of plasmas has advanced. In particular, detailed studies of the internal transport barrier could be performed in reversed magnetic shear plasmas. Furthermore, a "current hole" or a nearly zero current density at the plasma center was discovered in JT-60U plasmas by using a motional stark effect (MSE) system. Several diagnostic signal have been linked to actuators such as neutral beam injectors, the gas feed system, and the electron cyclotron heating system establishing the real-time control of electron temperature, neutron yield, radiated power, and electron temperature gradient, and thus improving plasma performance.
