Popis: The electron temperature Te and density ne at inner border side of plasma on TCABR tokamak are determined using the unicity of particle confinement time τp. In this method, the signals from hydrogen Balmer series emissions like H alfa, beta and gama are measured with an absolutely intensity calibrated spectrometer during the discharge and the particle confinement time then is evaluated using these three emissions for large range of electron temperature and density, until the unique value of τp is achieved. The results show that during the current plateau, the values of the edge electron density and temperature in high fill density discharge, present much strong variations compared to the low fill pressure because of larger edge turbulence activity.
