Spectral analyzer for Thomson scattering
Abstract
We describe here a four-channel spectral analyzer suitable for use in Thomson scattering diagnostics of plasmas, that incorporates several novel features and is inexpensive and physically compact. It is suitable for spectral analysis of light scattered from plasmas having densities down to ∼1014 cm-3 and temperatures up to several hundred electron volts.
