Rapid change of hydrogen neutral energy distribution at L/H-transition in JFT-2M H-mode

Abstract

Rapid changes of the main ion energy distribution at transitions from L-to-H, H-to-L and during ELMs are studied with the time of flight neutral measurement on the JFT-2M tokamak. At the L to H transition, 200-400{mu}s prior to the start of H{sub {alpha}} drop, an increase of the high energy outflux above an energy of 200eV is observed. An energy of more than 200eV for hydrogen corresponds to the collisionless condition {nu}*{sub i} < 1 just inside the separatrix. The change of the energy distribution precedes that of the H{sub {alpha}} signal and is also found for ELMs and the H to L transition. (author).
