Fast ion charge exchange spectroscopy adapted for tangential viewing geometry in LHD.

چکیده
A tangential Fast Ion Charge eXchange Spectroscopy is newly applied on a Large Helical Device (LHD) for co/countercirculating fast ions, which are produced by high energy tangential negative-ion based neutral beam injection. With this new observation geometry, both the tangential-neutral beam (NB) and a low-energy radial-NB based on positive ions can be utilized as probe beams of the measurement. We have successfully observed Doppler-shifted H-alpha lights due to the charge exchange process between the probing NB and circulating hydrogen ions of around 100 keV in LHD plasmas.

Fast ion charge exchange spectroscopy measurement using a radially injected neutral beam on the large helical device.
An experimental technique to investigate fast ion confinement based on charge exchange spectroscopy of H(alpha)-light was applied to evaluate the confinement property of perpendicular fast ions in large helical device (LHD). Sensitivities of the H(alpha) spectra to the pitch angles of injected neutral beams (NBs) and these to the angle between the sight line of the measurement and NB injection ...
متن کاملRadial Profile and Confinement of Energetic Particles during NBI and ICRF Heating in LHD
The energetic ion distributions and confinements are studied in the LHD plasma applying a newly developed radial profile measurement system FICXS (Fast Ion Charge Exchange Spectroscopy) based on the Doppler shifted Balmer-alpha (Hα) emission from the energetic ions charge-exchanged with injected neutral beams. A clear difference is found in the Hα emission spectrum changing the magnetic configu...
متن کاملCharge exchange spectroscopy as a fast ion diagnostic on TEXTOR.
An upgraded charge exchange spectroscopy diagnostic has been taken into operation at the TEXTOR tokamak. The angles of the viewing lines with the toroidal magnetic field are close to the pitch angles at birth of fast ions injected by one of the neutral beam injectors. Using another neutral beam for active spectroscopy, injected counter the direction in which fast ions injected by the first beam...

A novel fast-ion D-alpha (FIDA) diagnostic that is based on charge exchange spectroscopy has been installed at ASDEX Upgrade. The diagnostic uses a newly developed high-photon-throughput spectrometer together with a low-noise EM-CCD camera that allow measurements with 2 ms exposure time. Absolute intensities are obtained by calibrating the system with an integrating sphere and the wavelength de...
