Description

Multi-channel soft x-ray (SX) diagnostic has been used in the Large Helical Device (LHD) to research MHD equilibria and activities. However, in the coming deuterium plasma experiments in LHD, it is difficult to use semiconductor systems near LHD. Therefore, a new type of SX diagnostic, a scintillator-based type, has been investigated to avoid the damage from radiations. From a comparison between scintillators, CsI:Tl and P47 scintillators are selected as candidates. A prototype with CsI:Tl has been developed in LHD and a test with P47 will be done in EAST. (author)
