Stellar Flare Plasma Project:We installed a new grating spectrometer on NSTX
Spectral lineout shows the intrinsic impurities What about nitrogen? Nitrogen is hardly ever seen!
Some shots have nitrogen July 14, 2005 Nitrogen seen in shots 117087, 117113 August 17, 2005 Nitrogen seen in shot 117786 (strong He puff, LPI) August 23, 2005 Nitrogen seen in all RF shots
A detailed analysis of the "iron" data shows that some of the emission is from nickel
NSTX measurements agree very well with data from stellar coronae
NBI-heated discharges produce novel line ratios – evidence for charge exchange?
Non-intrinsic impurities: Argon injection Subsequent argon injection runs were essentially invisible
