Abstract

Transient electron temperature measurements of a step power experiment at W7-AS are reassessed by direct comparison of the up- and downward responses of the electron temperature. The analysis shows that the response at some distance to the center behaves linearly and the model predicted responses based on a power-dependent diffusion coefficient that vary from the measured step responses.
