Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to calculate recombination and ionization cross-sections of W ions and to evaluate uncertainties of the cross-sections by means of experimental measurement. Although direct comparison of theoretical calculations to experimental measurements is difficult, we have developed a method which cancels out electron energy dependence of emission intensity and enables direct comparison of the experimentally measured intensity ratio of W44+ to W45+ emissions to the theoretically calculated ratio of W45+ recombination to W44+ ionization cross-section.
The comparison shows that the calculation is in agreement with the measurement with a similar level of scatters to the experimental uncertainties. This indicates that the cross-sections with uncertainties, requested for tungsten density measurement in fusion plasmas for long, have been produced.
