Negative ion sources for neutral beam systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vacuum Science and Technology A: Vacuum, Surfaces and Films, 1983
Neutral beams to heat the plasmas of controlled fusion experiments are generated by neutralizing the charge of positive ions after they have been focused and accelerated. The efficiency of this system decreases with ion velocity and for D+ the system is practical only at ion energies of less than about 150 keV,which is less than the energies expected ...

Conceptual design of the beam source for the DEMO Neutral Beam Injectors

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
DEMO (DEMOnstration Fusion Power Plant) is a proposed nuclear fusion power plant that is intended to follow the ITER experimental reactor. The main goal of DEMO will be to demonstrate the possibility to produce electric energy from the fusion reaction ...

RAMI evaluation of the beam source for the DEMO neutral beam injectors [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design, 2020
DEMO is a first-of-a-kind DEMOnstration Fusion Power Plant [1] and is intended to follow the ITER experimental reactor. The main goal of DEMO will be to demonstrate the possibility to produce electric energy for the grid from the fusion reaction early in the second half of the century.

Neutral Beams for Neutron Generation in Fusion Neutron Sources

open access: yesAtoms, 2022
Neutral beam injection is supposed to be the main source of high-energy particles, driving non-inductive current and generating primary neutrons in fusion neutron sources design based on tokamaks.

Operation of Large RF Driven Negative Ion Sources for Fusion at Pressures below 0.3 Pa

open access: yesPlasma, 2021
The large (size: 1 m × 2 m) radio frequency (RF) driven negative ion sources for the neutral beam heating (NBI) systems of the future fusion experiment ITER will be operated at a low filling pressure of 0.3 Pa, in hydrogen or in deuterium.

Characteristics of the pressure profile in the accelerator on the RF negative ion source at ASIPP

open access: yesNanotechnology and Precision Engineering, 2023
Neutral beam injection (NBI) systems based on negative hydrogen ion sources—rather than the positive ion sources that have typically been used to date—will be used in the future magnetically confined nuclear fusion experiments to heat the plasma.

Negative Hydrogen Ion Sources for Fusion: From Plasma Generation to Beam Properties

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
The neutral beam injection systems for the international fusion experiment ITER used for heating, current drive, and diagnostic purposes are based on RF-driven negative hydrogen ion sources with a source area of roughly 0.9 m × 1.9 m. The sources operate

Design and Operation of an Intense Neutral Beam Source

open access: yesJournal of Vacuum Science and Technology, 1973
We describe a neutral beam source capable of producing pulsed deuterium beams of up to 15 A equivalent current at 20 keV for heating and sustaining fusion plasmas. It consists of a large-area plasma source, multiple-aperture accel-decel extractor, and closely coupled charge-exchange cell.

The Influence of Fast Particles on Plasma Rotation in the TUMAN-3M Tokamak

open access: yesAtoms, 2022
In most present-day tokamaks, the majority of the heating power comes from sources such as neutral-beam injection (NBI) and other types of auxiliary heating which allow for the transfer of energy to the plasma by a small population of externally ...
