Abstract
ECRCYL is a code to perform electron cyclotron radiation transport calculations in a magnetized plasma. Ray tracing is performed using the cold-plasma dispersion relation to determine ray trajectories. The plasma is assumed to lie in the annular space between two concentric cylinders which is bounded at both ends. The code takes account of plasma dispersion and collective effects due to finite density. The variation of the absorption coefficient with the angle of propagation, wave frequency and mode type is included. With simple modifications, the code can also take account of spatial variations of wall reflectivity and “polarization scrambling” due to reflection. In its present form the code is valid for low T c (≤10 keV), but this restriction can be removed with some modifications.
