Cover Story: In magnetic confinement fusion plasmas, a method of injecting mm sized icy hydrogen pellets at a speed of approximately 1 km/s has been considered for efficient particle fuelling. When a pellet enters the plasma, it is immediately enveloped by a dense plasma called an ablation cloud, which emits intense radiation. Spectroscopy of this radiation shows a Stark broadening of the hydrogen Balmer series emission lines and a characteristic continuous light spectrum. In the spectral modelling, we introduced the concept of Occupation Probability Formalism and performed a precise analysis of the emission spectrum, and we confirmed that the ablation cloud plasma is in a near complete local thermodynamic equilibrium with an electron temperature of about 1 eV and an electron density of about 1023 m−3.
