Abstract:This paper presents studies of ICRF-driven H + minority ions in TFTR deuterium plasmas using primarily passive H o flux detection in the energy range of 0.2-1.0 MeV with some corroborating active (Li pellet charge exchange) measurements. It is shown that in the passive mode the main donors for the neutralization of H + ions in this energy range are C 5+ ions. The measured effective H + tail temperatures range from 0.15 MeV at an ICRF power of 2 MW to 0.35 MeV at 6 MW. Analysis of the ICRF-driven H + ion energy… Show more
