    Notes: The applicability of incoherent Thomson scattering measurement is expanded to a class of non-Maxwellian plasmas which can be described by generalized Lorentzian (kappa) distributions. A fully relativistic scattering spectrum is presented in an analytic form which allows the possibility of a more robust estimation of the bulk electron temperature in the existence of high energy tail component. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A simple formula for reconstructing fully relativistic electron momentum distribution functions from incoherent Thomson scattering data is presented. Although the formula assumes the isotropy in momentum space, it may be useful for obtaining detailed information on the electron distribution function in fusion plasmas. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: For solving a window coating problem, an in situ window transmission monitoring by inferring it precisely from a known attenuation of the deposited film has been developed in the JT-60U Thomson scattering system. Also the practicability of an in situ window cleaning based on a laser blow-off technique has been investigated extensively. The coated film composition could be guessed to be a resin such as polyacrylonitrile with a small amount of metals. The existence of chromatic upper limit has been found in the recovered transmission after the blow-off cleaning, which gives systematic errors only of less than 3% to an apparent measurement of both electron density and temperature at 10 keV or less. The attenuation itself is unchanged before and after the laser blow-off cleaning. A complementary use of both methods will provide the Thomson scattering measurement of high Te plasmas with durable reliability and sufficient precision in the existing tokamaks and the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The design concept and operation performance of a novel alignment system for accurate electron density profile measurement is presented, which has been developed on the basis of the original method for adjusting quantitatively and actively an object field of collection fiber optics to a laser-beam axis. The quantitative expression needed for an appropriate alignment was able to be formulated using the beam width measured in situ by this alignment system and the four laser scattering intensity signals from special alignment fiber bundles. The effectiveness of this alignment system for precise and reliable measurement of electron density has been successfully demonstrated in the JT-60U Thomson scattering diagnostic through direct monitoring and quick restoration of alignment. The important and distinctive feature of this alignment system is to attain compatibility between a stable and accurate maintenance of alignment and an improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio of Thomson scattering to plasma light accompanying the reduced fiber bundle width. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A compact and two dimensional detector has been developed for the JT-60U Thomson scattering system, that consists mainly of a proximity focused image intensifier, a 20×12 spatially and spectrally arrayed silicon photodiode, and a data processing unit enabling high repetitive measurement at 1 kHz. To secure a wide spectral bandwidth for an effective detection of the Thomson scattering spectrum, we have introduced a spectrometer and lens systems with enhanced transmission in a longer wavelength, which can compensate for the decreasing characteristic of quantum efficiency of a transmission-mode photocathode used in the image intensifier. The spectral divide of the photodiode array is designed to give its full performance in a wide electron temperature (Te) range of 0.2–15 keV with 12 spectral channels. The application of this newly developed detector to the JT-60U core plasma measurement is also presented. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The design and operation performance of the latest ruby Thomson scattering system for the JT-60U are described, which includes many novel approaches to attain the repetitive measurement of 60 spatial points with high resolution (8 mm), precision, and reliability especially for a high temperature and large size tokamak device. A beam combiner composed of a polarizer and a Faraday rotator for two ruby lasers has provided the transient measurement with the minimum time interval of 2 ms in burst operation and the multitime-slice measurement with the repetition rate of 0.5 Hz in normal operation. A newly developed photodiode array detector with high repetitive ability of 1 ms has been used for the high temperature core plasma measurement. A quantitative alignment of collection fiber object field has been utilized for the reliable ne profile measurement. By using Rayleigh scattering light, an in situ inferring method for a coated viewing window transmission has been found to have an effect on the precise correction of electron temperature Te and density ne underestimate for high Te plasmas. Making the most use of this diagnostic in a series of the recent JT-60U reversed shear experiments, the formation of an internal transport barrier even for electrons has been revealed from the clear existence of a steep gradient in both Te and ne profile shapes. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A YAG laser Thomson scattering system has been developed to measure the time evolution of electron temperature (Te) and density (ne) profiles in the JT-60U. Presently this system provides Te and ne periodically every 100 ms (20 ms at the minimum) at 15 spatial channels. A six spectrum channel polychromator, which is a successive interference filter type, was designed to measure a wide Te range (20 eV–20 keV) by using five channels. The sixth channel is used for calibration by Rayleigh scattering. However, we also used the Rayleigh channel to measure Te and ne since the stray light level was very low. As a result, we were able to measure temperatures below 20 eV. The temperature of the silicon avalanche photodiode (APD) is stabilized by a Péltier element so that the gain is kept constant within ±0.5%. The stable performance of the APD enables accurate Te and ne measurement. During plasma operation, the electron temperature is measured over a wide range from the low temperature plasmas in the runaway plasma current tail generated by a killer pellet to the high temperatures of high performance negative shear plasmas. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
