Abstract
A linear photodiode array is used to image visible-light emission from the edge plasma of the Caltech Tokamak. The patterns of light fluctuation show small-scale broadband structure similar to that previously measured for plasma edge density turbulence. A high correlation is found between these light fluctuations and the fluctuations measured by a nearby Langmuir probe.Keywords
