AbstractAbstract
[en] The use of fast 2-D cameras on NSTX continues to grow. There are at least 6 cameras that can take up to 1-2 GBs of data apiece during each plasma shot on the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX). Efficient storage and retrieval of this data remains a challenge. Performance comparisons are presented for reading data stored in MDSplus, using both compressed data and segmented records. Encouragingly, fast 2-D camera data provides considerable insight into plasma complexities, such as small scale turbulence and particle transport. As an example of new uses, dual cameras looking at the same region of the plasma from different angles can provide trajectories of identifiable features in three dimensions. A laboratory test of this system is presented, as well as the corresponding data from an NSTX plasma where glowing dust particles can be seen to move in interesting paths. This document is composed of the slides of the presentation. (authors)
