Abstract

We investigate helium line emission from singlet and triplet levels showing advantageous diagnostic properties even for complex parameter conditions in ITER divertor plasmas: high density, opacity and interlocking effects. Particular attention is paid to the emission from the singlet levels at λ (1s3d 1D - 1s2p 1P) = 667.8 nm and λ (1s3s 1S - 1s2p 1P) = 728.1 nm and the triplet levels at λ (1s3s 3S - 1s2p 3P) = 706.5 nm, λ (1s3d 3D - 1s2p 3P) = 587.7 nm and λ (1s4d 3D - 1s2p 3P) = 447.1 nm. Data from complementary experiments (1. MISTRAL, PIIM laboratory, 2. High Density Discharge, LULI laboratory) are contrasted with theory to validate multilevel collisional radiative simulations which explicitly take into account singlet and triplet levels up to large quantum numbers (SOPHIA code [1]). The use of "ab initio" LSJ-split cross sections calculations carried out with the FAC-code [2] are tested.
