The rotation of impurity ion has been measured using ultraviolet (UV) visible spectroscopy in the cylindrical fusion plasma GAMMA 10 to investigate diamagnetic drift and ExB drift. The electric field is estimated with the plasma rotation and ExB drift analysis. Since the detected signal is the line integrated emission, the parametric Abel inversion technique has been developed. In the method, a density profile of impurity ion was assumed. Recently, we can obtain the density profile using collisional-radiative model (CRM) calculation. Then the electric field is obtained independently of that assumption. We present the measurement technique of the electric field using UV/visible spectroscopy and CRM calculation. The experimental result in GAMMA 10 is that consistent with the result of the neutral beam probe measurement.
