On the Alcator device the main mechanism producing neutrals in the central region of the plasma at a density n > 4 × 10 14 cm −3 is recombination of protons and electrons. The calculated neutral fluxes and spectra agree with the measured values. A suitable method of determining the ion temperature from the tail of the fast-neutral spectra for a dense plasma is described.
