Reflection coefficients of D, T ions with Maxwell energy distribution

Abstract

The reflection coefficients of D, T ions in fusion plasma incident to the first wall of a fusion reactor are necessary for us to understand and evaluate the energy balance, fuel recycling in the fusion reactor operation. Due to different energy and different direction of D, T ions in fusion plasma, the calculation of reflection coefficients of D and T ions in fusion plasma is generally a heavy task. In this paper we will present a new method, which is based on the scaling property of ion transport, for calculating the reflection coefficients of Maxwell D, T ions of fusion plasma. A systematic and comprehensive calculation for D, T reflection coefficients has been completed for getting the scaling formulas, and some reflection coefficients of Maxwell D, T ions with different temperature are given.
