Measurement of the local ion parameters in the Tokamak-4 plasma
Abstract
An active corpuscular diagnostic method involving injection of an atomic beam into a plasma was used, for the first time, to show the possibility of measuring a local ion temperature by the scattering of atoms on ions. Temperature and ion density distributions along the plasma radius are obtained by means of ion charge exchange on an artificial target consisting of beam atoms.
