The multi-channel interferometer/polarimeter for the RTP tokamak

  • 1. FOM-Instituut voor Plasmafysica, Rijnhuizen (Netherlands)

Description

A sophisticated interferometer and polarimeter system was designed for the medium-sized RTP tokamak (Rijnhuizen Tokamak Project); a = 16 cm, R = 72 cm, Bo = 2.5 T and plasma pulse duration 200 ms. RTP is specifically dedicated to transport and fluctuation studies. For electron heat transport studies two 60 GHz, 200 kW gyrotrons will be used. The multi-channel interferometer system is dedicated to the study of plasma transport such as electron density pulse propagation induced by sawteeth, oscillating gaspuff, pellet injection and density effects of (modulated) ECRH, as well as routine density profile measurements.
