Abstract

Development of a far-infrared Thomson scattering system for the study of density fluctuations in fusion plasmas is described. New data are presented of naturally occurring low-frequency microturbulence and also of electrostatic modes generated at the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF). The latter studies are important in understanding ICRF supplementary heating experiments. They have produced the first internal observation of mode-converted ion -Bernstein waves in a tokamak plasma.

摘要

描述了一种用于研究聚变等离子体密度涨落的远红外汤姆逊散射系统的开发。给出了关于自然发生的低频微湍流以及在离子回旋频率范围（ICRF）产生的静电模的新数据。后一项研究对于理解ICRF辅助加热实验很重要。它们首次在托卡马克等离子体中对模式转换离子伯恩斯坦波进行了内部观测。
