Faraday rotation as a density diagnostic for helical axis stellarators

H J Gardner, J Howard1994年Plasma Physics and Controlled FusionIF 2.2出版社

The Faraday rotation of a linearly polarized electromagnetic wave probing a helical-axis-stellarator plasma is a useful electron density diagnostic. The twisted magnetic geometry results in a large magnetic held component in the vertical plane that is assumed to contain the probe beam(s). As a result, significant polarization rotations result for far-infrared beams traversing plasmas of modest densities and magnetic fields. Linear-birefringence-induced beam elliptization is small and the sensitivity to secondary (bootstrap) currents is weak. A new technique for measurement of the polarization state and its application to densitometry of plasma confined by the H-1 Heliac is discussed and modelled using the three-dimensional, free-boundary MHD equilibrium code, VMEC.

ヘリカル軸ステラレータプラズマを探査する直線偏光電磁波のファラデー回転は、有用な電子密度診断法である。ねじれた磁気幾何学形状により、探査ビームが含まれると仮定される垂直面内に大きな磁場成分が生じる。その結果、適度な密度と磁場を有するプラズマを透過する遠赤外線ビームに対して、有意な偏光回転が生じる。線形複屈折によるビームの楕円化は小さく、二次(ブートストラップ)電流に対する感度は弱い。偏光状態の新しい測定手法と、そのH-1ヘリアックに閉じ込められたプラズマの密度測定への応用について、三次元自由境界MHD平衡コードVMECを用いたモデリングとともに論じる。
