Abstract

A new diagnostic for the National Spherical Torus Experiment was described. The diagnostic was found to be sensitive to light from C III, C IV, and He II intrinsic emissions. The radial difference between the poloidal and toroidal views was a consequence of the the fact that the emission shell width was comparable to the chordal spacing of the diagnostic. The apparent anisotropy was interpreted as an upper limit to the nonstatistical limitation of the diagnostic.
