In this work, we use a method based on the concept of particle confinement time [Formula: see text] uniqueness to calculate the electron density and temperature in ohmically heated, edge plasma of the Hefei tokamak-7. Here, with the help of the data taken from Johnson and Hinnov’s table, we have done an extensive work to find electron densities and temperatures that satisfy the [Formula: see text] uniqueness to evaluate the temporal evolution of electron density [Formula: see text] and temperature [Formula: see text]. The results are in good agreement as measured from the Langmuir probe array in previous works.

Abstract We measured the parameter reproducibility and radial electron density profile of capillary discharge waveguides with diameters of 650 $\mathrm{\mu} \mathrm{m}$ to 2 mm and lengths of 9 to 40 cm. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, 40 cm is the longest discharge capillary plasma waveguide to date. This length is important for $\ge$ 10 GeV electron energy gain in a single laser-driven plasma wakefield acceleration stage. Evaluation of waveguide parameter variations showed that their focusing strength was stable and reproducible to $<0.2$ % and their average on-axis plasma electron density to $<1$ %. These variations explain only a small fraction of laser-driven plasma wakefield acceleration electron bunch variations observed in experiments to date. Measurements of laser pulse centroid oscillations revealed that the radial channel profile rises faster than parabolic and is in excellent agreement with magnetohydrodynamic simulation results. We show that the effects of non-parabolic contributions on Gaussian pulse propagation were negligible when the pulse was approximately matched to the channel. However, they affected pulse propagation for a non-matched configuration in which the waveguide was used as a plasma telescope to change the focused laser pulse spot size.
