Abstract

High loop voltage and low-density plasma discharges at the GOLEM tokamak present favorable conditions for the study of the runaway electrons (RE). A probe is being designed and developed for the spectral measurement of the RE energy inside the last closed flux surface of GOLEM tokamak plasma. Design of the probe is based on simulation results of the FLUKA code that estimates the energy absorbed by the scintillating crystals and filters of various densities. In the simulations, graphite, stainless steel and molybdenum were tested to filter the supra-thermal electrons. Since having different light yield, YSO (Y2SiO5:Ce), NaI(Tl) and plastic (EJ-200) scintillating crystals were chosen for the simulations.
