This chapter reviews multichannel broadband measurement of the soft-X-ray radiation and total radiation in magnetically confined fusion plasma experiments. Common detector types used (including bolometers), details of their application, and interpretation of their measurements are described. An introduction is given to the application of computed t…

The European Union will supply a number of diagnostics for ITER. Significant progress has been made on the design and integration of these diagnostics. Specific topics, in common for several of the diagnostics, discussed are port-plug integration, simplification of labyrinths against neutron streaming, and design measures to protect and to be able …

The impurity line and continuum emission for International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor ( ITER ) reference H-mode and Internal Transport Barrier ( ITB ) plasmas were modeled using the SANCO impurity transport code. Using the instrument sensitivity for a spatially resolving crystal spectrometer array with doubly-curved crystals and two-dimensi…

Aperture, pin-hole and collimator detection systems are often used in plasma diagnostics, for example, in soft x-ray detection and bolometer systems. In this article the simultaneous optimization of viewing-beam overlap and light yield is considered in multi-channel aperture and collimator systems for two-dimensional (2D)tomography. This article br…

Experiments on the JET tokamak show that the wave-induced pinch in the presence of toroidally asymmetric waves can provide a tool for controlling the profile of ion-cyclotron-resonant 3 He ions. Direct evidence for the wave-induced pinch has been obtained from the measured -ray emission profiles. Concurrent differences in the excitation of Alfve?n …

Poloidally asymmetric distributions of nickel ions have been observed experimentally in Joint European Torus optimized shear tokamak plasmas following nickel laser injection experiments. Two types of asymmetries occur. In the first type of asymmetry, which has earlier been observed in high-confinement mode plasmas, nickel ions accumulate on the out…
