The neutral atoms injected don't remain neutral. </p><p>As the beam passes through the plasma, the atoms are ionized as they bounce off the ions in the plasma. Because the magnetic field inside the torus is bent into a circle, the fast ions are hoped to be confined in the background plasma. The confined fast ions are slowed down by the background plasma, the same way air resistance slows down a baseball. The energy transfer from the fast ions to the plasma increases the plasma temperature. The actual injector can be seen from the observation window. It looks like a long silver cylinder laying on its side but tilted slightly downward against the torus near the back of the machine. When the injector is pulsed, 20,000 volts accelerates the beam to about 30 amperes of current for about 1.5 milliseconds. </p><p>Problems would occur if the fast ions aren't confined within the plasma long enough for them to deposit their energy.

Bernstein">Ira Bernstein</a>. </p><p>Bernstein Wave Mode relates to a method of injecting ion or electron energy (IBW or EBW) into a plasma to increase its temperature in an attempt to reach fusion conditions. A plasma is a phase of matter which occurs naturally during lightning and <a href="/wiki/Electric_discharge" title="Electric discharge">electrical discharges</a> and which is created artificially in fusion reactors to produce extremely high temperatures.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>This is an experiment on the MST to heat the plasma and to drive electric current inside the plasma. </p><p>There is a large electric current in the plasma inside this machine; it is responsible for creating the necessary magnetic fields to make the reversed field pinch configuration. It also heats the plasma very quickly — the same way wires inside your toaster get hot. Your toaster probably uses about 10 ampere of current, while the plasma in MST is heated by up to 600,000 amperes. But even though the plasma reaches over 10,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit, it is not hot enough for practical fusion energy and we need to find other ways to deposit energy into the plasma. The EBW is a way to inject <a href="/wiki/Microwave_power" class="mw-redirect" title="Microwave power">microwave power</a> to further heat the plasma. The standard microwave oven produces around 1 kW of power at a frequency of 2.45 GHz; the EBW experiment is currently producing 150 kW at 3.6 GHz, and it is a goal of the team to upgrade to over 2 MW. To generate this type of power (on a low budget), decommissioned military radar equipment and home-made voltage power supplies are used. </p><p>The second (and perhaps more scientifically important) goal of the EBW experiment is to drive electric current in a prescribed place within the plasma. The main plasma current distributes itself naturally, and the plasma tends to concentrate current into the center, leaving less current near the edge. This can lead to instability of the plasma. It has been shown (both theoretically and by experiments in the Madison Symmetric Torus) that driving current in the edge makes the plasma more stable to fluctuations in the magnetic field, resulting in better confinement of the hot plasma and leading to much higher temperature. Using the EBW to drive this stabilizing current would be a very important scientific result. The ability to deposit very specifically the auxiliary current gives us the opportunity to optimize our current drive schemes. The heating is also very localized, allowing us to study how hot (at least locally) the plasma can become within this magnetic confinement scheme — in plasma physics terms, this is called finding the beta limit. This is an unanswered question for the RFP and will give insight on whether or not this type of machine could be scaled up to a cost-effective, efficient fusion reactor. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_heavy_ion_beam_probe">The heavy ion beam probe</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Madison_Symmetric_Torus&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: The heavy ion beam probe"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Heavy Ion Beam Probe (HIBP) fires <a href="/wiki/Potassium" title="Potassium">potassium ions</a> into the plasma.

The FIR system in MST is based on the FIR lasers enclosed in the beige-colored laser safety room to the right of the picture shown, in the second floor hallway. </p><p>There are four FIR lasers in the system. One is a <a href="/wiki/CO2_laser" class="mw-redirect" title="CO2 laser">CO<sub>2</sub> laser</a> which produces a continuous power of about 120 W. This beam is then split in three. Each beam optically pumps a <a href="/wiki/Formic_acid" title="Formic acid">formic acid</a> vapor laser operating at a wavelength of 432.6 mm, and a power of about 20 mW. The FIR system has 2 modes of operation: interferometry and polarimetry. </p><p><b>What does FIR diagnostic system measure?</b> </p><p>The electron density, plasma current density, and magnetic field are three important plasma parameters of MST. The FIR system is used to measure their spatial and temporal distributions. </p><p><b>How does FIR interferometry work?</b> </p><p>Like glass, a plasma has a <a href="/wiki/Refractive_index" title="Refractive index">refractive index</a> different from that of vacuum (or air) that depends on plasma electron density. </p><p>We send one <a href="/wiki/Laser" title="Laser">laser beam</a> through the plasma (the probe beam), one through the air (the reference beam), and measure the phase difference between them. This experimental configuration is called a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The measured phase is proportional to the average plasma electron density along the beam path. </p><p>In MST, we send multiple probe beams (blue lines in the figure) through the plasma at different radii. We then apply the Abel inversion technique to obtain a profile of the plasma electron density. </p><p><b>How does FIR polarimetry work?</b> </p><p>A plasma is also an optically active media, meaning when a linearly polarized <a href="/wiki/Electromagnetic_wave" class="mw-redirect" title="Electromagnetic wave">electromagnetic wave</a> is propagating parallel (or anti-parallel) to the magnetic field, the <a href="/wiki/Polarization_(waves)" title="Polarization (waves)">polarization</a> of the wave exiting the plasma will rotate a small angle. </p><p>This is called Faraday rotation, and the angle is called the Faraday rotation angle. The FIR system measures the Faraday rotation, which is proportional to the line average of the electron <a href="/wiki/Density" title="Density">density</a> times the magnetic field component parallel to the beam path. </p><p>The reason for Faraday rotation is as follows: When a linearly polarized wave is propagating along a <a href="/wiki/Magnetic_field" title="Magnetic field">magnetic field line</a>, it is de-composed into left-hand and right-hand circularly polarized components. The phase difference between them as they exit the plasma causes the recombined linearly polarized wave to rotate its polarization direction. In MST, we launch two co-propagating, counter-rotating waves to probe the plasma. We then measure the phase difference between these two beams, which will be twice the Faraday rotation angle. </p><p>In the figure, each of the 11 blue probe beams is a combination of two counter-rotating, circularly polarized beams, measuring the Faraday rotation angles along the same chords as the <a href="/wiki/Interferometry" title="Interferometry">interferometer</a> does. The combined interferometer phases and Faraday rotation angles can then be combined to determine the poloidal magnetic field distribution. Using <a href="/wiki/Ampere%27s_law" class="mw-redirect" title="Ampere's law">Ampere's law</a>, the toroidal plasma current can be determined as well. </p><p><b>How well does the FIR diagnostic system work?</b> </p><p>The FIR system for MST is very precise. The Faraday rotation angle for MST plasmas is typically within 5 degrees. To measure such small signal, we have achieved an accuracy of 0.06 degree. The temporal resolution is less than 1 microsecond. </p><p><b>What are some of the research topics related to FIR?</b> </p><p>FIR is an essential tool for most of the research topics in MST since it provides information about the basic plasma parameters. The system measures electron density, toroidal current, poloidal magnetic field, and the spatial profiles of each. </p><p>Currently, we are exploring the possibility of measuring toroidal magnetic field and poloidal plasma current by using the plasma bi-refringence effect, or the <a href="/wiki/Cotton%E2%80%93Mouton_effect" title="Cotton–Mouton effect">Cotton-Mouton effect.</a> When a linearly polarized EM wave is propagating perpendicular to the magnetic field, the refractive index depends on whether the wave polarization is parallel or perpendicular to the magnetic field direction. </p><p><b>Why choose FIR lasers?</b> </p><p>For plasma <a href="/wiki/Polarimetry" title="Polarimetry">polarimetry</a>-interferometry, the <a href="/wiki/Wavelength" title="Wavelength">wavelength</a> we chose is sufficiently long to provide measurable plasma induced phase changes, but sufficiently short to avoid complicated <a href="/wiki/Waves_in_plasmas" title="Waves in plasmas">plasma-wave</a> interactions, including the bending of the beam. There are many high power molecular laser lines available in this wavelength range, and many commercially available detectors. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Thomson_scattering">Thomson scattering</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Madison_Symmetric_Torus&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Thomson scattering"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><b>What is Thomson Scattering?</b> </p><p><a href="/wiki/Thomson_scattering" title="Thomson scattering">Thomson scattering</a> is the result of a collision between a photon (an electromagnetic wave) and a charged particle, such as an electron. When an electron and <a href="/wiki/Photon" title="Photon">photon</a> "collide" the electron feels a <a href="/wiki/Lorentz_force" title="Lorentz force">Lorentz force</a> from the oscillating electric and magnetic fields of the photon and is accelerated. This acceleration causes the electron to emit a different photon in a different direction. This emitted photon has a wavelength shifted from that of the incident photon by an amount dependent on the electron energy. Another way of looking at this is that the electron absorbs the energy of the photon and re emits the energy in the form of a different electromagnetic wave. This scattering of a photon by an electron is called Thomson Scattering. </p><p><b>How is Thomson Scattering useful to plasma physicists?</b> </p><p>Since the wavelength of the scattered photon depends on the energy of the scattering electron, Thomson scattering is good way to measure the energy of an electron. This is done by creating a photon of known wavelength and measuring the wavelength of the scattered photon. The Thomson Scattering configuration at MST uses a 1064 nm <a href="/wiki/Nd:YAG_laser" title="Nd:YAG laser">Nd:YAG laser</a> system, which produces the best time-resolution electron temperature readings in the world.<sup id="cite_ref-Hartog2010_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hartog2010-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> We create our photons with high power lasers that we shine into a window on the top of the MST, and collect scattered photons with a large collection lens on the side of the MST. </p><p>The wavelength distribution of the scattered photons tells us the energy distribution of the electrons in the plasma, giving us a direct unobtrusive way of getting the temperature of the electrons. The amount of photons we actually collect can also tell us something about the density of the electrons in the plasma. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Charge_exchange_recombination_spectroscopy_and_ion_Doppler_spectroscopy">Charge exchange recombination spectroscopy and ion Doppler spectroscopy</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Madison_Symmetric_Torus&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Charge exchange recombination spectroscopy and ion Doppler spectroscopy"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Fusion plasmas are typically generated from <a href="/wiki/Ionization" title="Ionization">ionization</a> of a neutral gas. In most cases, <a href="/wiki/Deuterium" title="Deuterium">deuterium</a> is used as the plasma fuel. These plasmas are therefore primarily made up of deuterium ions (plus electrons), and it is necessary to diagnose the behavior of these ions if the relevant plasma physics is to be understood. However, in any fusion device, other types of ions ("impurities") are also present. These exist naturally due to the inability to achieve a perfect vacuum in a fusion reactor before fueling. Thus, materials such as <a href="/wiki/Water_vapor" title="Water vapor">water vapor</a>, nitrogen, and <a href="/wiki/Carbon" title="Carbon">carbon</a> will be found in small amounts in typical plasma discharges. Impurities may also be generated during plasma discharges due to plasma-wall interactions. </p><p>These interactions primarily cause material from the wall to be ejected into the plasma through sputtering. In the Madison Symmetric Torus (MST), properties of the impurity ions (e.g. carbon, <a href="/wiki/Oxygen" title="Oxygen">oxygen</a>, etc.) are closely linked to properties of the deuterium ions as a result of strong interaction between the ion species. Thus, impurity ion measurements can, in principle, provide direct information about the deuterium ions. Measurements of the impurity ion temperature (<i>T</i><sub>i</sub>) and flow velocity (<i>v</i><sub>i</sub>) are obtained on MST using Charge Exchange Recombination Spectroscopy, or CHERS. </p><p>The CHERS process can be broken down into two separate steps: Charge Exchange and Radiative Decay. In the first stage, an electron is transferred from a neutral atom (e.g. deuterium) to an impurity ion that has no electrons (e.g. C<sup>+6</sup>). During this transfer, the electron typically winds up in an <a href="/wiki/Excited_state" title="Excited state">excited state</a> (high energy level) of the impurity ion. As the electron decays down to the <a href="/wiki/Ground_state" title="Ground state">ground state</a> (minimum energy level), energy conservation requires radiation to be emitted by the impurity ion. This emission has discrete values of energy, or wavelength, which correspond to the energy differences between the initial and final atomic levels of a particular electron transition. For example, consider charge exchange between a deuterium atom and a C<sup>+6</sup> ion: if the electron is transferred to the <i>n</i>=7 energy level of the carbon ion, then the ion will emit radiation at discrete energies given by the difference in energy between the <i>n</i>=7 and <i>n</i>=6 levels, the <i>n</i>=6 and <i>n</i>=5 levels, the <i>n</i>=5 and <i>n</i>=4 levels, and so on (down to <i>n=1</i>). This line emission is Doppler-broadened as a result of ion thermal motion, and Doppler-shifted as a result of ion flow. The <a href="/wiki/Doppler_shift" class="mw-redirect" title="Doppler shift">Doppler shift</a> causes the emission to be blue-shifted (towards shorter wavelength/higher frequency) if the ions are moving towards the point of observation, or red-shifted (towards longer wavelength/lower frequency) if the flow is away from the point of observation. Measurements of the carbon emission line shape are therefore used to extract values for the impurity ion temperature and velocity. </p><p><i>Charge Exchange</i>: H + C<sup>+6</sup> → </p><p>H<sup>+1</sup> + C<sup>+5</sup> (<i>n=7</i>, <i>l=6</i>) </p><p><i>Radiative decay</i>: C<sup>+5</sup> (<i>n=7</i>, <i>l=6</i>) → </p><p>C<sup>+5</sup> (<i>n=6</i>, <i>l=5</i>) + h (photon) </p><p>In a typical fusion device the neutral atom density is small. Therefore, the amount of radiated emission that results from charge exchange between impurity ions and neutrals is also small. On MST, the neutral density is enhanced by injection of fast hydrogen atoms via a diagnostic neutral beam (DNB). As a result, the radiated emission is greatly increased, though primarily along the beam injection path (the DNB is located below the deck, and cannot be seen from here; the injection path is from right to left across the plasma). Perpendicular to the beam path, there exist a number of optical ports for viewing the plasma at different radial positions. For a given plasma discharge, a fiber bundle system is placed on one of these ports, and is used to collect emission along its line-of-sight (black tubes on top of the machine contain light collection optics; fibers are placed in the long, curved white tube when not in use). This emission is sent to a <a href="/wiki/Spectrometer" title="Spectrometer">spectrometer</a> where it is dispersed over a finite wavelength range — which is centered on the emission line of interest — by a pair of optical gratings. However, because the collected emission is dominated by radiation from along the beam path, the measurements are effectively localized to the intersection volume between the fiber view and the beam. On MST, this intersection volume is small (~ 2 cm<sup>3</sup>) compared to the plasma volume, allowing spatially resolved measurements of <i>T</i><sub>i</sub> and <i>v</i><sub>i</sub> to be obtained. Data collected from a number of plasma discharges — for which the location of the fiber bundle system is varied — are used to construct radial profiles of the impurity ion temperature and velocity, providing important information for understanding the physics of plasmas in MST. Typical ion temperatures measured by CHERS on MST are in the range of 100 to 800 eV (2 million to 17 million degrees Fahrenheit), depending on position in the plasma and type of discharge. Likewise, measured equilibrium ion velocities are on the order of 1,000 to 10,000 meters per second. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Madison_Symmetric_Torus&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Almagri, A.
