Abstract
We report in this paper the study towards revealing the energy distribution of lost high-energy runaway electrons based on their bremsstrahlung emission. The high-energy hard x-rays are originated from the bremsstrahlung emission of lost runaway electrons in the experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST) tokamak, and the energy spectra are measured using a gamma spectrometer. The energy distribution of the runaway electrons is reconstructed from this hard x-ray energy spectrum using a deconvolution algorithm. The results indicate that the energy distribution of the lost high-energy runaway electrons can be obtained with the deconvolution approach. In the specific case in this paper, the runaway electron energy was peaked around 8 MeV, covering from 6 MeV to 14 MeV.
