This is the FusionWiki, jointly hosted by LNF and Fusenet.
Diagnostics are the eyes and ears of fusion reactors. They return vital parameters such as the temperature, the density, the impurity content, the magnetic field et cetera. Below you find a list of different diagnostics, together with their main measurement parameters.
