Abstract

High-resolution spectral measurements have been made of an intense fluctuating radiation feature from Alcator C tokamak plasmas using a rapid scan Fabry–Perot interferometer. The emission occurs near the electron plasma frequency and has a very narrow band width, Δω/ω≤1% typically. Occasionally correlation of fluctuating emission with m=1 MHD oscillations is observed.
