Tomographic reconstruction of bolometry for JT-60U diverted tokamak characterization

First results of the two-dimensionally reconstructed distribution of divertor radiation in JT-60U are presented. Hardware improvements of in-vessel divertor bolometer cameras to withstand severe electrical and thermal loads and the development of tomography software have made detailed and visual studies of divertor radiation possible. Line-integrated bolometer signals are successfully mapped onto the JT-60U geometry, indicating characteristic profiles for radiative divertor operation. A unique measurement of the radiating layer width at the target plate independently confirms the results of tomographic analysis. Radiation which is almost uniformly distributed along the separatrix flux line from the inboard to the outboard divertor is identified in the moderate density H-mode. Temporal evolution of radiative collapse due to heavy argon radiation is explored. Difficulties in the reconstruction associated with the local hot spot and neutrals are also discussed.
