14. When transport is present, the plasma's density and shape change with time. If the characteristic transport time is greater than the other time scales in the system, then the plasma exists in a slowly evolving quasiequilibrium state. It is the shape of this state that we measure.
15. o) dependence.
16. On dumping, the elliptical shape of the far end of a below-resonance plasma will rotate to orient itself properly relative to the near end shape. Above-resonance plasma images are more problematic as they will rotate and smear while dumping. However, the smearing is reduced by the electron acceleration during the dumping process. More importantly, exactly this same smearing explains why the plasma is round in the first place
