... , whereby excited states of hydrogen-like ions of low-, impurities, such as carbon and oxygen, are populated by charge transfer from atomic hydrogen beam atoms, has enabled detailed local measurements of ion temperature profiles. This is crucial to our attempts to understand the mechanisms responsible for cross-field energy transport.
