A study of the properties of the turbulence-driven ion and electron heat fluxes, is presented. Dedicated H-mode experiments taking advantage of the on-axis and off-axis possibilities of both neutral beam injection and electron cyclotron resonance heating available on the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak were carried out. The experimental results are...

At ASDEX upgrade (AUG) a new framework for the evaluation of impurity densities based on measurements from charge exchange recombination spectroscopy (CXRS) diagnostics has been developed. The charge exchange impurity concentration analysis code, or CHICA, can perform these calculations for all of the beam-based CXRS diagnostics at AUG and is...

A new core charge exchange recombination spectroscopy diagnostic has been installed in the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak that is capable of measuring the impurity ion temperature, toroidal rotation, and density on both the low field side (LFS) and high field side (HFS) of the plasma. The new system features 48 lines-of-sight (LOS) with a radial...

The upgrade of the edge charge exchange recombination spectroscopy diagnostic at ASDEX Upgrade has enabled highly spatially resolved me asurements of the impurity ion dynamics during an edge-localized mode cycle ( ELM ) with unprecedented temp oral resolution, i.e. 65 μ s. The increase of transport during an ELM induces a relaxation of the ion,...
