Comparison of charge-exchange recombination spectroscopy measurements of the pedestal region of Alcator C-Mod with neoclassical flow predictions
… In this study, we examine the simplified neoclassical predictions for impurity flows using equations developed for plasmas with background ions in the Pfirsch-Schliter (PS, high collisionality) and banana (low collisionality) regimes. Measured B5+ flow profiles are derived from the …
