Diagnostics for pure electron phase
- External wall probes to determine ? (= ?(?)?)
- Much more information is available than in a pure cylinder since the stellarator field imposes a three-dimensional structure on ?
- A large number of probes is needed, ~100 spread around
- Can also be used to change boundary conditions on equilibrium
- Internal (Langmuir) emitting probes
- RF waves for plasma frequency determination (density)
- Internal phosphor screen
- Can be used in startup phase when partly toroidal plasmas are created using biasing rings, gives 2-D information
- Lost particle diagnostics - ‘bad’ orbits probe ?
