High energy X-ray measurements during lower hybrid current drive on the Alcator C tokamak

High energy X-ray emission (Eγ> 20 keV) from superthermal plasma electrons during lower hybrid current drive on the Alcator C tokamak has been measured using sodium iodide (NaI) scintillation spectroscopy. The X-ray spectra are generally linear on a semi-log plot of count rate versus photon energy and extend out to several hundred kiloelectronvolts. For the range of densities (e≈(0.3–0.8) × 1014 cm−3) over which current drive was performed on Alcator, there was negligible emission before the injection of radiofrequency wave power. The radial profiles of the emission were also measured and indicate that the current carrying high energy electrons exist primarily within the inner half (r/a < 1/2) of the plasma column. Plasma parameter scans produced variations in the X-ray emission profiles that are consistent with changes in the launched Fourier power spectrum and the conditions imposed by lower hybrid wave accessibility. In addition, the velocity space distribution function of the energetic tail electrons has been determined using the angular variation in the X-ray emission.

Alcator Cトカマクにおける低域混成波電流駆動中に、非熱的プラズマ電子からの高エネルギーX線放射(Eγ> 20 keV)を、ヨウ化ナトリウム(NaI)シンチレーション分光法を用いて測定した。X線スペクトルは、計数率対光子エネルギーの半対数プロットにおいて概ね直線的であり、数百キロ電子ボルトまで及ぶ。Alcatorで電流駆動が行われた密度範囲(e≈(0.3–0.8) × 1014 cm−3)では、高周波電力の入射前の放射は無視できるほど小さかった。放射の動径分布も測定され、電流を担う高エネルギー電子が主にプラズマ柱の内側半分(r/a < 1/2)に存在することが示された。プラズマパラメータの走査により、X線放射分布には、励起されたフーリエパワースペクトルの変化および低域混成波の到達可能性によって課される条件と整合する変動が生じた。さらに、X線放射の角度依存性を用いて、高エネルギーテール電子の速度空間分布関数が決定された。
