Abstract
The injection of a neutral beam into the core of magnetically confined plasmas is a foundation for various plasma diagnostics, including charge-exchange recombination spectroscopy, beam-emission spectroscopy and motional Stark effect diagnostics. We review the current status of statistical and non-statistical collisional-radiative models used for calculation of populations of hydrogen beam excited states. The recently developed collisional-radiative (CR) model in parabolic states, which utilizes collisional data calculated in the Glauber approximation, is discussed in detail. CR simulations with this model show non-statistical emission for the $\sigma$ and $\pi$ components of the H$_\alpha$ Stark multiplet and provide $m$-resolved populations. The results of simulations are in excellent agreement with the systematic MSE measurements from the JET tokamak.Citation
