Motivated by a renewed interest in impurity transport in nuclear fusion research, this reference text covers the diagnostics, experimental approach, and results of recent impurity transport studies in tokamak and helical plasmas. It also covers the impurity transport parallel to the magnetic field in the scrape-off layer (SOL) and the impact of magnetic topology on impurity transport. Topics covered include an introduction to impurity transport; the diagnostics system with passive and active spectroscopy; impurity transport across magnetic flux surfaces; the effect of magnetic topology; and the control of impurity transport using electron cyclotron resonance heating and ion cyclotron resonance heating. With few books available on impurity transport in plasmas, this book would appeal to academic researchers and graduate students on the field of plasma physics and nuclear fusion research.
