    Notes: Plasma diagnostics employing energetic lithium beams are in routine use on several present-day tokamak experiments. These measurements are constrained by the availability of a suitable lithium ion source. Necessary and/or desirable parameters include narrow energy spread, high-emission current density, simplicity, and long lifetime. The existing ion gun on the TEXT experiment uses the thermionic emitter β-eucryptite and meets the above requirements, except for being limited to a useful emission of about 4 mA. We will present design criteria and accelerator results for a new ion gun capable of 15-mA emission based on an increased emitter area. Important design considerations are the thermal and mechanical properties of the large (∼20 cm2) emitter area and the ion optics required to focus the emitted flux into a beam of ∼1-cm2 cross section. The potential improvement in the performance of both the TEXT and ASDEX diagnostic systems will be discussed.

    Notes: The current density profile diagnostic system presently operating on the Texas Experimental Tokamak (TEXT) employs a cw dye laser system to induce fluorescence in a lithium beam injected into the discharge. Systematic effects due to the finite lifetime of the excited state and enhancement of the beam attenuation during laser excitation limit the application of this technique to plasma densities (approximately-less-than)1×1013 cm−3. Laser enhancement of beam attenuation results from the large collisional ionization cross sections of the excited Li 2P state compared to the 2S ground state. This effect is exploited in a new diagnostic scheme which uses the polarization modulation of the present technique, but monitors the enhanced attenuation as opposed to the fluorescence. Detailed modeling indicates that a collinear beams configuration, with a short pulse laser and time-of-flight signal analysis, will provide a measurement of the complete poloidal field profile on TEXT at plasma densities up to 3×1013 cm−3 with 16-ms averaging times.
