    Notes: The centrifuge hydrogen pellet injection system at ASDEX Upgrade was extended for inboard launching. Successful and efficient inboard pellet refueling was realized up to pellet velocities of about 400 m/s. In order to achieve maximum available pellet particle rates of the system still at the low centrifuge revolution needed in this velocity range, the injector has been modified. Thus, operational conditions have been developed yielding the potential to inject pellets at rather low speed but high repetition rate. Since pellets injected from the inboard are obviously not hampered by the low velocity but show better performance than fast pellets injected from the outside, this scheme seems to allow for an efficient and flexible particle refueling of hot plasmas. The system is now capable of launching pellet series at rates up to 60 Hz at a speed of 240 m/s. With the biggest available pellet size, this enables a pellet particle flux of 2.6×1022/s. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The q-profile measurement presented in this article is based on the observation of pellets injected into the plasma and viewed with a fast-framing camera. The pellets sublimate in the plasma and the ablated material is ionized. The ions move along the magnetic field lines, while an ablation cloud is forming. This ablation cloud contains a small fraction of neutral particles which emit visible light after collisional excitation. It is therefore possible to visualize the magnetic field lines along which the pellet passes. The inclination angle of the magnetic field lines with respect to the torus midplane can be determined from this observation. The results are compared with the inclination angles delivered by an equilibrium code. Further analysis shows that it is not meaningful to determine the q-profile from the data of only the pellet ablation, in the case of an elongated plasma as in ASDEX Upgrade. However, the accuracy of the q-profile determined by an equilibrium code, especially in the plasma center, can be greatly improved by using the pellet measurements as additional input data. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The repeating centrifuge pellet injector developed for plasma fuelling experiments at ASDEX Upgrade was improved to give higher repetition rates. The system is now capable of launching pellet series at rates of up to 80 Hz and speeds of up to 1.2 km/s. Differently sized (nominal pellet masses 1.7–4.3×1020 atoms) deuterium pellets have been injected into ASDEX Upgrade. The only limitations at present derive from the pellet feed-in by a single storage cryostat. These might be overcome by using several feed-in sources © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A new multichord bolometer array has been installed for the first time in the RFX experiment, a large machine designed to study plasma confinement at high current in the reversed field pinch configuration. The main purpose of the diagnostic is to provide emissivity spatial profiles with good time resolution for the measurement of the total radiated power. The detectors used are miniaturized metal foil bolometers which are mounted in a water cooled pinhole camera covered by a graphite shield. The bolometers can be absolutely calibrated in situ according to a technique originally developed for the Asdex tokamak. In order to prove the electrical calibration technique a blackened bolometer was optically irradiated with a monochromatic light over a wide spectral range with wave numbers from 2.7 up to 47 000 cm−1. In the visible and UV spectral range an absorptivity of 80% was measured while in the IR and far-infrared regions only 7% of the incoming light was absorbed by the bolometer foil. In the mm wavelength range less than 1% of the radiation was absorbed. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
