Neutral particle behavior and H alpha emission spectrum are simulated with Monte Carlo code DEGAS for divertor simulator Material and Plasma(MAP)-II. Effect of plasma condition (ie. detach and attach) on neutral particle transport and H alpha emission is studied. Target plate reflection is the main neutral source for MAP-II attached plasma. Change of projectiles and comparison with puffing source are also shown.
