Previously obtained data on the Wega tokamak by lower hybrid heating (f = 500 MHz; PHF = 130 kW) are re-visited in the light of recent theories on ion stochastic heating and quasi-linear electron Landau damping. It is possible, with the help of these theories, to correctly estimate the fast-ion mean energy, the HF power density coupled to the ions and that coupled to the electrons. The values of the parallel index of refraction, N||, which are necessary to obtain a good quantitative agreement between experiment and theoretical estimates, are the same for ions and electrons, although higher than expected.
