Collective Thomson scattering diagnostic for the GDT experiment
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a collective Thomson scattering diagnostic for fast ion measurements for the gas-dynamic trap (GDT) facility at the Budker Institute. The diagnostic utilizes 54.5 GHz gyrotron usually used for electron cyclotron resonance heating as a source of probe radiation and is aimed at reconstruction of distributions over transverse and longitudinal velocities of NBI-driven ions in the plasma core. Here we present a feasibility study of this concept.
