  Tokamak: TFTR

  Pulse number: 88578

Shot description, purpose of the shot: 
   This is a D-NBI L-mode from a toroidal rotation scan

  Contact persons: Robert Budny (budny@princeton.edu)

  Institution: PPPL

  Date of shot: 19950830

  Time of interest = 4.45 s

  Analysis codes: TRANSP

  Run number: 88578B01

  Date of analysis: 20080103 TRANSP run by Robert Budny

 Assumptions for analysis:
   Ne(r,t) from 10-chord interferometer (MIRI).
   Te(r,t) from ECE polychrometer.
   Te and Ne have short temporal smoothing, about 15 
   Ti(r,t), v_phi(r,t), and n_Carbon(r,t) from CXRS (CHERS).
   The Ti is raggedy.
   Zeff(r,t) from n_Carbon normalized by the visible bremsstrahlung
   emission profile during NBI phase, single chord VB otherwise.
   Evolving boundary taken from magnetics
   NM1, NM2, NN3 files for H, D, and impurity thermal ions

 Additional information:
   This is a beam-heated deuterium L-mode discharge at 4.75 Tesla,
   2.3 MA beam-torque scan. 
   The NNBI consisted of 4 co and 4 ctr sources with full voltage
   of 90-91kV.
