The Neutral Beam (NB) system for ITER will deliver an ion beam with energy of 1 MeV and current of 40 A.

Abstract
The Neutral Beam (NB) system for ITER will deliver an ion beam with energy of 1 MeV and current of 40 A. Only NB systems based on negative ions can attain the neutralization efficiency required for the NB system in ITER. Helicon plasmas are a promising candidate for the production of negative ions. The RAID (Resonant Antenna Ion Device) at the Swiss Plasma Center represents a crucial step in understanding helicon plasma physics and negative ions production through volume processes. In this talk the last advances on RAID will be presented including the preliminary measurements of H- density by means of Cavity RingDown Spectroscopy and microwave interferometry measurements.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
