The main experimental programme was aimed at characterizing the edge plasma in a tokamak by using different advanced diagnostic techniques. It is widely recognized that characterization of phenomena occurring at the plasma edge is essential for understanding the plasma confinement in a tokamak. The edge plasma in small and large scale experiments has many similar features, and the results obtained through detailed measurements in a small flexible device such as CASTOR are in many aspects still relevant to those in large tokamaks. Therefore, it is expected that the results of this joint experiment will have general validity. The radial and poloidal structure of electrostatic turbulence was characterized. The effects of edge biasing were analysed. Radiation fluctuations and profile measurements were performed using fast bolometry. Plasma position measurements were performed using novel Hall sensors. . %8 May %@group %@group %@group %@group LAP-INPE-MCT-BR %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group LAP-INPE-MCT-BR %@issn 0029-5515 %@affiliation Department of Applied Physics, Ghent University %@affiliation KFKI-RMKI, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation EURATOM/UKAEA Fusion Association %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation IAEA, NAPC Physics Section, Vienna %@affiliation IAEA, NAPC Physics Section, Vienna %@affiliation Department of Applied Physics, Ghent University %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Institute of Plasma Physics, Association EURATOM %@affiliation KFKI-RMKI, Association EURATOM %@affiliation KFKI-RMKI, Association EURATOM %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@affiliation Institute of Physics, University of São Paulo %@affiliation EAEA %@affiliation Institute of Physics, University of São Paulo %@affiliation Saint Petersburg State University %@affiliation Plasma Physics Laboratory, University of Saskatchewan %@affiliation RRC 'Kurchatov Institute' %@affiliation Plasma Physics Research Center %D 2007 %A Oost, G.
