Optimization of the Collective Thomson scattering diagnostic for future operation

open access: yesJournal of Instrumentation, 2019
Collective Thomson scattering (CTS) is a microwave diagnostic allowing measurements of a number of plasma parameters such as the bulk ion temperature, the plasma composition, drift velocities and fast ion velocity distribution function. A CTS system has been successfully installed and commissioned on the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) stellarator. The measured

Design and performance of the collective Thomson scattering receiver at ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]

open access: yesReview of Scientific Instruments, 2012
Here we present the design of the fast-ion collective Thomson scattering receiver for millimeter wave radiation installed at ASDEX Upgrade, a tokamak for fusion plasma experiments. The receiver can detect spectral power densities of a few eV against the electron cyclotron emission background on the order of 100 eV under presence of gyrotron stray ...

105-GHz Notch Filter Design for Collective Thomson Scattering [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Science and Technology, 2011
A millimeter-wave notch filter with 105-GHz center frequency, >20-GHz passband coverage, and 1-GHz rejection bandwidth has been constructed. The design is based on a fundamental rectangular waveguide with cylindrical cavities coupled by narrow iris gaps, i.e., small elongated holes of negligible thickness.

Effects of relativistic electrons on the calculated collective Thomson scattered spectra [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 1995
The effects of relativistic electrons on the spectral density function {ital S}({bold k},{omega}) are evaluated in the collective Thomson scattering regime for ion diagnostics. An electromagnetic code that calculates the electron density fluctuation term of {ital S}({bold k},{omega}) has been modified by treating the electrons with a relativistic ...

Recovering non-Maxwellian particle velocity distribution functions from collective Thomson-scattered spectra

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
Collective optical Thomson scattering (TS) is a diagnostic commonly used to characterize plasma parameters. These parameters are typically extracted by a fitting algorithm that minimizes the difference between a measured scattered spectrum and an ...

Collision correction on collective Thomson scattering spectra and its application in inertial confinement fusion hohlraum plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesMatter and Radiation at Extremes
Collective Thomson scattering (CTS) is crucial for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) hohlraum diagnostics, but measurement of the electron plasma wave (EPW) feature remains challenging.

On the influence of plasma turbulence on collective Thomson scattering measurements

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2023
Plasma turbulence can result in significant distortion of probing and receiving microwave beams, and this effect can modify the registered spectrum in a collective Thomson scattering (CTS) experiment. An analytical description of the CTS experiment is provided in this paper for the probing beam distortion due to the plasma edge turbulence.
