Abstract: | Multi-channel soft x-ray (SX) detectors are applied to generate images ofmagnetohydrodynamic (MHD) oscillation on the HT-7 tokamak, and the datafrom SX cameras are analysed by using theFourier--Bessel harmonic reconstruction method and the singular valuedecomposition. The imagereconstruction of SX emissivity is obtained on the assumption of plasmarigid rotation. One of the important phenomena in the HT-7 discharge is thetransition from the sawtooth oscillations to the MHD oscillations when theplasma density grows higher. The MHD structureobserved in the SX tomography is featured as follows: the magnetic surface of MHDstructure is made up of the crescent-shaped ``hot core' and the circular``cold bubble'. The structure of the magnetic surface is relatively stable.It rotates in the direction of the electron diamagnetic drift at a frequency being the oscillation frequency of the MHD oscillations. |
