In this study, the use of a spatial heterodyne spectrometer (SHS) to measure the toroidal flow velocity ( V f) and the ion temperature [Formula: see text] of the C6+ impurity ion by charge exchange spectroscopy was explored. The instrumental width (IW) of the SHS (aperture size = 16.77 mm2, etendue = 2.9867 mm2 sr) was extrapolated to be 0.09 nm, which is half of the 0.17 nm IW extrapolated for a conventionally used dispersive spectrometer (DS) (aperture size = 2.6 mm2, etendue = 0.2605 mm2 sr). The resulting V f and [Formula: see text] measurements were found to be in good agreement with those measured using the DS.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
