| Description: | Measure the sheath factor for power transmission in Pisces using a DIMES sample which can then be used for the same measurement in DIII-D. |
| Experimental Approach/Plan: | use an instrumented carbon sample with a Langmuir probe in Pisces to measure electron temperature and density, and surface tmeprature using an IR camera. |
| Background: | We have measured sheath factors different from the theoretical value. The Pisces sheath will be simpler than DIII-D in th absence of a magnetic field, so we should look at that first. Then when we uderstand it, move the sample to DIII-D |
| Resource Requirements: | Pisces run time, Langmuir probe instrumented sample, IR camera
DIII-D shots or piggyback. |
| Diagnostic Requirements: | IR camera, Langmuir probe |
| Analysis Requirements: | Probe and IRTV analysis, compare with sheath model |
| Other Requirements: | -- |
