NSTX gas puff imaging data from 2010 run


These are images of a 24x30 cm region just above the outer midplane of NSTX.
The view is pointed upward in the local B field direction at the gas puff.

In the images, radially outward is to the right, upward is up in the machine.
The solid line is the separatrix and the dotted line is the limiter shadow.
These videos have a frame rate of 400,000 frames/sec at 2 microsec/frame.

This data was taken by Ricky Maqueda using a Phantom 710 camera.
The movies were made using Bill Davis' NSTX software 'fcplayer'.
