A spectral system with the spatial resolution for plasma motion detection in the GOL-3 multi-mirror trap

Аннотация

A spectral system with the spatial resolution intended for diagnosing rotation of the plasma in the GOL-3 facility is described. The system is capable of measuring the radial dependences of the Doppler shift and broadening of spectral lines emitted by the plasma from various points in it. A DFS-24 double focusing spectrometer with a reciprocal linear dispersion of 0.45 nm/mm is the basis for the spectral system. If a radiation source is axially symmetric and extended, it is possible to obtain the intensity of spectral lines on the surface of the photosensitive area of a CCD array with the spatial resolution across the plasma by forming an image of the plasma in the sagittal focal plane of the entrance collimation lens, though the spectrometer astigmatism is strong. As a result, a spatial resolution of 0.8 mm has been attained in the developed system at a 55-mm field of view.
