Measurements of hot electrons in the Extrap T1 reversed-field pinch

A Welander, H Bergsåker1998年Plasma Physics and Controlled FusionIF 2.2出版社

The presence of an anisotropic energetic electron population in the edge region is a characteristic feature of reversed-field pinch (RFP) plasmas. In the Extrap T1 RFP, the anisotropic, parallel heat flux in the edge region measured by calorimetry was typically several hundred . To gain more insight into the origin of the hot electron component and to achieve time resolution of the hot electron flow during the discharge, a target probe with a soft x-ray monitor was designed, calibrated and implemented. The x-ray emission from the target was measured with a surface barrier detector covered with a set of different x-ray filters to achieve energy resolution. A calibration in the range 0.5-2 keV electron energy was performed on the same target and detector assembly using a cathode electron gun. The calibration data are interpolated and extrapolated numerically. A directional asymmetry of more than a factor of 100 for the higher energy electrons is observed. The hot electrons are estimated to constitute 10% of the total electron density at the edge and their energy distribution is approximated by a half-Maxwellian with a temperature slightly higher than the central electron temperature. Scalings with plasma current, as well as correlations with local measurements and radial dependences, are presented.

反転磁場ピンチ(RFP)プラズマの特徴的な性質として、エッジ領域における異方性のある高エネルギー電子集団の存在が挙げられる。Extrap T1 RFPにおいて、カロリメトリーにより測定されたエッジ領域での異方性のある平行熱流束は、典型的には数百[単位]であった。高エネルギー電子成分の起源に関する理解を深め、放電中の高エネルギー電子流の時間分解能を達成するために、軟X線モニターを備えたターゲットプローブを設計、較正、実装した。ターゲットからのX線放射は、エネルギー分解能を達成するために一連の異なるX線フィルターで覆われた表面障壁検出器を用いて測定された。0.5〜2 keVの電子エネルギー範囲における較正は、陰極電子銃を用いて同一のターゲット・検出器アセンブリに対して実施された。較正データは数値的に補間および補外された。より高エネルギーの電子については、100倍を超える方向非対称性が観測された。高エネルギー電子は、エッジにおける全電子密度の10%を構成すると推定され、そのエネルギー分布は、中心電子温度よりわずかに高い温度を持つ半マクスウェル分布で近似される。プラズマ電流に対するスケーリング、ならびに局所[測定値]との相関および動径依存性が提示される。
