Model of Thomson scattering from z-pinch plasma: Application in experimental design for Plasma Focus
The present work develops a model of Thomson scattering (TS) for z-pinch plasmas. Sustained on the phenomenology observed in dynamical-pinch discharges of interest in fusion studies, the plasma dynamics is modeled by axisymmetric bi-Maxwellian velocity ...
