Abstract

Tangential compact neutron emission spectrometer (CNES) based on the Cs2LiYCl6:Ce with 7Li-enrichment (CLYC7) scintillator is newly installed in the Large Helical Device (LHD). Measurement of neutron energy spectrum was performed using CNES in tangential neutral beam (NB) heated deuterium plasma discharges. The Doppler shift of neutron energy according to the direction of tangential NB injection has been obtained. When the fast ions moving away from the CNES, lower shifted neutron energy is obtained, whereas the upper shifted neutron energy is obtained when the fast ions moving toward the CNES. The obtained neutron energy is almost consistent with the virgin deuterium-deuterium neutron energy evaluated by the simple two-body kinematic calculation.
