Active Beam Scattering Apparatus and Its Application to JFT-2 Tokamak

摘要

The capability to assess the ion temperatures using a neutral beam scattering system is investigated on the JFT-2 tokamak. The neutral beam scattering system consists of a 15 KeV neutral hydrogen atom beam and a momentum analyser with silicon surface barrier detectors. The energy analysis of scattered particles on the scattering angle of 4 exp 0 gives the estimation of ion temperatures, which agree well with the one deduced from passive charge-exchange neutral measurements. The influence of impurity ions to the scattering spectrum is not observed and the results of gas scattering experiments suggests that this phenomenon occurs because of the ionization of neutral beam due to the collisions with impurity ions.
