• Bootstrap current scan– target plasma, Bt=4.5 kG, κ=2.06
– increased κ to 2.37, TF ramp 4.5-5 kG at t=0.4 s
– Future work:• Try to reduce noise/possible ground loop in 8-18 GHz radiometer• Increase beam power to increase edge bootstrap current fraction• Introduce early H-L transition in H-mode target plasma
