Distribution of Ionized Carbon during Simulated Plasma Disruption for the Isotropic Graphite Target

抄録

The behavior of ionized carbon during the simulated plasma disruption is investigated with the Magneto-Plasma-Dynamic (MPD) Arc Jet. The temporal and spatial distributions of the ionized carbon were measured by emission spectroscopy. Distributions of CII and CIII were obtained. For the isotropic graphite target, the emission intensity increased as the target is exposed by the heat flux from plasma. Two consecutive peaks of intensity were observed at the point near the target surface. A simple model of redeposition and surface roughness could explain these phenomena.
