New High Resolution Thomson Scattering System for the COMPASS Tokamak
نویسندگان
چکیده
The COMPASS tokamak is being re-installed at IPP Prague after its transfer from Culham, U.K. Within the innovation, new diagnostics will be constructed, including a High Resolution Thomson Scattering System measuring electron temperature (Te) and electron density (ne) profiles. Scientific programme of the COMPASS tokamak is focused on the pedestal studies, thus the main stress will be laid on the edge part of the system.

Estimation of Plasma Light in Thomson Scattering System Designed for the COMPASS Tokamak
The COMPASS tokamak, originally from Culham laboratory, UKAEA, has been reinstalled at Institute of Plasma Physics, Prague. Many innovations will be done and new diagnostics have to be constructed. Electron temperature Te and density ne as key parameters of fusion plasma will be measured directly by the newly designed high spatial resolution incoherent Thomson scattering system. The scientific ...
متن کاملDesign of Filters for COMPASS Thomson Scattering Diagnostics
Reinstalled tokamak COMPASS, originally from Culham Science Centre, is now operating at the Institute of Plasma Physics, Prague and many new optical diagnostics are being developed [Sestak et al, 2009]. For measurement of electron temperature and density profiles, high resolution incoherent Thomson scattering spectroscopy based on Nd:YAG laser and avalanche photodiodes is under development now....
متن کاملHigh-resolution Thomson scattering system on the COMPASS tokamak: evaluation of plasma parameters and error analysis.
The electron density and temperature profiles measured by the Thomson scattering diagnostic on the COMPASS tokamak are used for estimation of electron kinetic energy, energy confinement time, and effective charge number Z(eff). Data are compared with the line-integrated electron density measured by a microwave interferometer in an ohmically heated plasma with a circular cross section. An error ...
متن کاملEdge and core Thomson scattering systems and their calibration on the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak.
A new 10 channel Thomson scattering (TS) system was installed on the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak to measure radial profiles of electron density and temperature at the plasma edge with high radial resolution. Together with the already existing TS system, which is now used for the core plasma, electron density and temperature profiles extending from the edge to the core are now obtained in a single dis...
متن کاملHigh resolution multiposition Thomson scattering for the TEXTOR tokamak
In this article, the recently installed high resolution multiposition Thomson scattering ~TS! system of the TEXTOR tokamak is presented. Light from a pulsed ruby laser is scattered by the free electrons of the plasma and transmitted by fiber optics to a polychromator for spectral analysis. The Doppler broadened spectrum of the scattered light is analyzed with a Littrow spectrometer, detected wi...
