The expectation of power from fusion reactions currently involves magnetic containment of hot plasma in the tokamak toroidal configuration, and plasma heating by injection of energetic neutral atoms. Isolation of the plasma from the walls, to maintain the required purity, and exhaust of the spent fuel both involve the use of a divertor. This removes plasma from the boundary layer into a separate chamber. We report tests of these concepts in the Divertor Injection Tokamak Experiment (DITE) at Culham Laboratory. We also present the first measurements in a tokamak of the neutral-beam driven current. This demonstrates the principle of a continuously operating tokamak, with possible advantages for a reactor.

Abstract The COMPASS tokamak is equipped with two identical neutral beam injectors (NBI) for additional plasma heating. They provide a beam of deuterium atoms with a power of up to ~(2 × 300) kW. We show that the neutral beam is not monoenergetic but contains several energy components. An accurate knowledge of the neutral beam power in each individual energy component is essential for a detailed description of the beam- -plasma interaction and better understanding of the NBI heating processes in the COMPASS tokamak. This paper describes the determination of individual energy components in the neutral beam from intensities of the Doppler-shifted Dα lines, which are measured by a high-resolution spectrometer viewing the neutral beam-line at the exit of NBI. Furthermore, the divergence of beamlets escaping single aperture of the last accelerating grid is deduced from the width of the Doppler-shifted lines. Recently, one of the NBI systems was modified by the removal of the Faraday copper shield from the ion source. The comparison of the beam composition and the beamlet divergence before and after this modification is also presented.
