Outline:
The tokamak GOLEM is equipped with a rich set of advanced electrostatic and magnetic probes to study edge plasma physics. The aim of the proposed topic is to characterize a global statistical properties of its edge plasma parameters with unprecedented temporal resolution (~10 us) of ion and electron temperature measurements using a fast swept ball-pen probe. The focus on the comparison of the the various plasma regimes w±o improved plasma confinement regimes using biasing electrode will be the main topic of the work.
