The hard X-ray emission from the TRIAM-1M tokamak plasma during steady state lower hybrid current drive with a discharge duration of a few minutes was measured with sodium iodide scintillation spectrometers. The radial profiles of the X-ray emission were also measured and indicate that, in the low density regime (ne = (1−3)×1012 cm−3), the current carrying high energy electrons are mainly in the inner region of the plasma column and their radial profile remains unchanged during current drive. On the other hand, high density discharges (ne = (3−6) × 1012 cm−3) are always accompanied by an abrupt drop of the plasma current, and the X-ray emission profile changes from peaked to broad. This change can be attributed to the conditions of wave accessibility. As the electron density increases, the accessibility of the plasma to lower hybrid waves with low values of the parallel wave number n1 is significantly reduced and high energy electrons resonating with the waves are produced at the plasma periphery. Interaction of these electrons with the limiters causes an increase of the electron density in this region; waves with low n1 then become completely excluded from the inner part of the plasma column. This interpretation is supported by measurements of the density profile and impurity radiation, and has been confirmed in an investigation of discharges with additional gas puffing.

TRIAM-1Mトカマクプラズマにおける、数分間の放電持続時間を有する定常低域混成波電流駆動中の硬X線放出を、シンチレーション分光計を用いて測定した。X線放出の動径分布も測定され、低密度領域(ne = (1−3)×10¹² cm⁻³)では、電流を担う高エネルギー電子は主にプラズマ柱の内部領域に存在し、その動径分布は電流駆動中に変化しないことが示された。一方、高密度放電(ne = (3−6)×10¹² cm⁻³)では、常にプラズマ電流の急激な低下を伴い、X線放出分布はピーク型から平坦型へと変化する。この変化は、波動の到達可能性の条件に起因すると考えられる。電子密度が増加すると、低域混成波の並行波数n₁の低い成分に対するプラズマの到達可能性が著しく低下し、波動と共鳴する高エネルギー電子はプラズマ周辺部で生成される。これらの電子とリミッターとの相互作用により、この領域の電子密度が増加し、その結果、n₁の低い波動成分はプラズマ柱の内部領域から完全に排除される。この解釈は、密度分布と不純物の測定によって支持されており、追加のガス入射を行った放電における調査によって確認されている。
