Title: X-ray observations of Ne-like Xe and satellites from C-Mod tokamak plasmas

Journal Article · · Journal of Physics. B, Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics

We discuss X-ray spectra in the wavelength range from 2.70 to 2.76 °A from xenon (Z = 54) in near neon-like charge states have been observed in Alcator C-Mod tokamak plasmas. The 3D (2p6 - (2p5)3/23d5/2, 2720.4 m°A) and 3F (2p6 - (2p5)1/23s1/2, 2729.0 m°A) transitions from neon-like Xe44+ have been identified, along with nearby Na-, Mgand Al-like satellites. The intensity ratio of 3D to the Mg-like satellite near 2.74 °A increases strongly with electron temperature in the range from 3 to 4 keV.
