Strong electron temperature stiffness induced by broad-band turbulence in high poloidal beta plasmas on EAST

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
We report observations of strong electron temperature profile stiffness in high poloidal beta ( ${\beta _{\text{p}}}\sim 2$ ) plasmas on EAST for the first time.

Physically constrained data-driven inversion of 2D fast-ion velocity distributions from single view CTS spectra

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Reconstructing fast-ion velocity distributions from collective Thomson scattering (CTS) spectra is an ill-posed inverse problem due to the spectral nonlinearity, strong parameter coupling and measurement noise.

Diagnostic weight functions in constants-of-motion phase-space

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The fast-ion phase-space distribution function in axisymmetric tokamak plasmas is completely described by the three constants of motion: energy, magnetic moment and toroidal canonical angular momentum. In this work, the observable regions of constants-of-

Fast-ion phase-space tomography with wave–particle interactions in the ion cyclotron frequency range as prior

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The fast-ion distribution function in fusion plasmas can be inferred by inverting Doppler-shifted measurements from fast-ion diagnostics. The full fast-ion distribution function can be parametrised by three constants of motion with the addition of a ...

Collective Thomson Scattering Study using Gyrotron in LHD

open access: yes, 2008
The collective Thomson scattering (CTS) is one of the most promising methods for evaluating the ion velocity distribution function. The study of CTS diagnostic has been started utilizing the gyrotron and antenna/transmission systems installed in LHD for ...
