RESUMO
Plasma resistivity is estimated in runaway discharges on TCABR tokamak from the decay of positive voltage spikes using method developed in I. El Chamaa Neto et al., Phys. Plasmas 7, 2894 (2000). In this regime, the plasma detachment from the limiter is observed experimentally indicating that plasma recombination is the main process of plasma particle losses. In order to investigate if this process is actually taking place, measurements of electron temperature in the plasma are necessary. The electron temperature deduced from the plasma resistivity is in the range 0.2 - 1.5 eV.
