Plasma Spectroscopy in ISTTOK

Plasma spectroscopy is a well established technique for impurities study in fusion plasmas. A brief description of the several spectroscopic systems which have been in operation at ISTTOK is given. In ISTTOK a passive spectroscopy diagnostic system is being used to perform spectral and spatial characterization in the 300-850 nm wavelength range. The system used to perform that work consist essentially of a cooled CCD camera coupled to a half a meter imaging spectrograph with collection optics based on a multi-fiber set to allow for enhanced spatial resolution. Experimental data is shown underlining typical plasma fusion spectral lines and specific ISTTOK characteristics. A web based data access tool is presented that allows the spectral plasma survey in specific wavelength ranges. The information provided by this survey has been used to select suitable transmission filters for a diagnostic, currently under development, to measure Zeff parameter for ISTTOK plasmas. A description of this diagnostic is also presented.
