Oral presentation

The neutron detection system for characterization of emissivity in ITER Tokamak during DD and DT experiments poses serious challenges to the performance of the diagnostic control and data acquisition system (CDAcq). Ongoing design of the ITER Radial Neutron Camera(RNC) diagnostic comprises 26 lines-of-sight(LOS) for complete plasma inspection. CDAcq system aims at meeting ITER requirements of...

Oral presentation

The main role of the ITER Radial Neutron Camera (RNC) diagnostic is to measure in Real-Time (RT) the plasma neutron emissivity profile at high peak count rates for a time duration up to 500 s. Due to the unprecedented high performance conditions and after the identification of critical problems, a set of activities have been selected, focused on the development of high priority prototypes,...

433. An Ultra-high Speed Waveform Digitizer for the Applications of ICF Experiment

Oral presentation

In the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiment, there is a growing demand for ultra-high speed waveform digitizer, so as to realize the accurate measurement of various physical quantities for plasma diagnosis. However, the commercial oscilloscopes are of low precision and large volume for some physical experiments. Especially in the ICF experiment with strong radiation, whether using long...
