Abstract

A diagnostic neutral beam (DNB) is used in the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) to provide a time-modulated, spatially localized enhancement of the signal in the charge-exchange (CX) diagnostic. Two autonomous charge-exchange neutral analyzer (CENA) systems have been designed for the TFTR. The first system measures the plasma ion temperature along as many as 12 vertical line-of-sight chords spaced approximately equidistantly across the torus minor diameter. The second system emphasizes the measurement of ion phenomena associated with neutral beam injection heating and has a fanlike field of view along six sightlines in the equatorial plane.
