Electron power deposition measurements during ion cyclotron range of frequency heating on C-Mod

A 19-channel electron cyclotron emission (ECE) grating polychromator has been added to the existing ECE diagnostics on C-Mod, which include a 9-channel polychromator, heterodyne radiometer and Michelson interferometer. The new instrument can significantly improve the radial resolution of electron power deposition measurements in ICRF experiments on C-Mod. The improved resolution is important for resolving electron power deposition in off-axis mode conversion heating regimes where the mode conversion region can be narrow. The first data from this new instrument were acquired last year during 80 MHz hydrogen minority D-H mode conversion experiments where the H/(H+D) ratio was varied from 0.02 to 0.30 and the toroidal field was varied from 5.1 to 5.7 T. Although complicated by the presence of large sawteeth, some electron power deposition results were obtained from a break-in-slope method. These results, together with results from data acquired during the current C-Mod experimental campaign, will be presented and compared to predicted radial deposition profiles from the TORIC, 2-D full wave RF code, and the METS95, 1-D integral wave RF code
