Abstract
SUMMARY A D20 FIR laser emitting O.5J in 1.41s at 38511m and a heterodyne receiver with a noise temperature of 8000 °K (DSB) were used in a Thomson scattering experiment to measure the ion temperature of a tokamak plasma during a single laser shot. Series of measurements underreproducible plasma conditions have been carried out in H -, D -, and He- plasmas. Their statistical analysis yielded a typical relative error of 25% fora single shot measurement. (1) P. Woskoboinikow, W.J. Mulligan, J. Machuzak, D.R. Cohn, R.J. Temkin, T.C.L.G. Sollner, and B.
