TJ-II:Heavy Ion Beam Probe

Revision as of 19:38, 4 September 2009 by Admin (talk | contribs)

At TJ-II, the advanced Heavy Ion Beam Probe can simultaneously measure the plasma electric potential φ, the electron density ne, the electron temperature Te, and a poloidal magnetic field component Bp at a point inside the plasma. [1] [2] [3] This point can be scanned through the plasma cross-section by varying the deflection potentials (active beam control).
