Abstract

Neutron flux measurements are important in fusion devices for both safety requirements and physics studies. A new system has been built for the Mega-Amp Spherical Tokamak Upgrade (MAST Upgrade) that provides neutron count, DC, and Campbell mode measurements for a 1 µs period at 1MHz. The acquisition system uses a Red Pitaya board to sample current from two fission chambers mounted on the side of the MAST-U vessel. The system-on-chip design of the Zynq-7020 on the Red Pitaya also allows a web server implementation using Flask for data retrieval and diagnostic configuration over the MAST Upgrade network.
