CASTOR tokamak
It is evident that understanding of underlying physics in the edge plasma requires simultaneous measurement:
- Plasma parameters like density, temperature, potential with a good spatial and temporal resolution (turbulence) ( 等离子体温度 , 密度 , 电势测量需要高的空间和时间分辨率 )
- Plasma flows in poloidal (and toroidal) direction ( 等离子体在换向和极向两个方向上都有流通量 )
A practical solution for small scale experiments => electric (Langmuir) probes ( 朗缪探针 )
Alternatively in large experiments (more sophisticated diagnostics):• Fast cameras are used to visualize the density fluctuations ( ~100 k USD)( 足够快的可视化测
量等离子体密度波动变化 )
• Beam emission spectroscopy• Microwave scattering• ……
What diagnostics are required ?

•时间分辨率 1~2 ms•16 small tips (diameter=2 mm) • Distance of tips 2.5 mm• Total extension 35 mm
Fig.2 Picutre of single (left) and the double (right) rake probes
The individual tips can operate in a sweeping mode and the current – voltage characteristic can be measured to determine the radial profile of electron density and temperature

Tools for edge plasma diagnostic and fluctuation measurements on CASTOR (Summary)
• Classical Langmuir probes – IV characteristics, local Te , ne , Vfl at the plasma edge, routine measurements
• Radial & Poloidal arrays of Langmuir probes for spatially-temporally resolved measurements of plasma fluctuations
• Advanced probes – Segmented tunnel probe - a quite novel concept for fast Te and Ti measurements
•Ball pen probe & Emissive probe – Direct measurement of plasma potential
• Oriented probes - Gundestrup and Mach probe for flow measurements during biasing experiments
