Shaping pulses of radiation detectors into a true Gaussian form
摘要： A digital shaper for conversion of detector pulses with a short leading edge and a long exponential tail into a true Gaussian form is proposed and analysed in this paper. The width of Gaussian pulses can be several times smaller than the rise time of the input pulses, i.e. considerably shorter than the undistorted output pulses provided by standard shapers. The algorithm of the true Gaussian shaper is presented in the paper. The output pulses and noises of the true Gaussian shapers are compared with those of standard shapers for different widths of shaped pulses. The analyses has shown that the true Gaussian shaping can be advantageous for detection of strongly overlapped pulses which appear at high particle fluxes in the detector input.

Design of Neutron Imaging Aperture for Inertial Confinement Fusion in Laser Fusion Research Center
摘要： Neutron Imaging System (NIS) has been used to image the burn volume and cold fuel volume of imploding fusion capsules. In this work, we present a design of neutron imaging aperture for inertial con?nement fusion in Laser Fusion Research Center. Since the total neutron yield should be less than 1014, the penumbral aperture has been chosen. A geometric model has been developed to assess the performance of the neutron imaging system, including the spatial resolution, the ?eld of view and the signal-to-noise ratio. This model reproduces the performances of neutron image systems on OMEGA. The spatial resolution of designed NIS is about 22 μm for a ?eld of view of 250 μm. The signal-to-noise ratio can be better than 10, if the neutron yield is higher than 1013.

New infrared imaging diagnostic for the Neutral Beam Heating System at the TJ-II stellarator
摘要： An upgraded infrared imaging system has been installed at the stellarator TJ-II as a diagnostic tool of the Neutral Beam Injection heating. Thermographic analysis of the beam-wall interaction areas can be used to estimate the beam power lost through reionization and shine-through mechanisms in Neutral Beam heated plasmas. Three di?erent Regions of Interest inside TJ-II vacuum vessel have been determined whose thermographic analysis will be applied to the study of beam related processes. The optical conditions required for each application have been used to de?ne the speci?cations of the IR camera. Optimization of the optical design has been carried out by means of the optical simulation code ZEMAX. The IR window size has been increased to maximize the fraction of the ?eld of view that is free from vignetting. The system has been fully commissioned and is now operative, routinely providing thermographic data of the regions of interest during the last TJ-II experimental campaign. The IR diagnostic is described in detail and its applicability to study beam power deposition on di?erent targets is discussed.

Mitigation of EC breakdown in the gyrotron transmission line of the ITER Collective Thomson Scattering diagnostic via a Split Biased Waveguide
摘要： In this paper we present the results of the R&D work that has been performed on avoiding electron cyclotron (EC) gas breakdown inside the launcher transmission line (TL) of the ITER collective Thomson scattering (CTS) diagnostic, due to encountering the fundamental EC resonance, which is located inside the port plug vacuum for the baseline ITER magnetic field scenario. If an EC breakdown occurs, this can lead to strong local absorption of the CTS gyrotron beam, as well as arcing inside the ITER vacuum vessel, which must be avoided. Due to the hostile, restrictive, and nuclear environment in ITER, it is not possible to implement the standard method for avoiding EC breakdown - a controlled atmosphere at the EC resonance. Instead, the CTS diagnostic will include a longitudinally-split electrically-biased corrugated waveguide (SBWG) in the launcher transmission line. The SBWG works by applying a transverse DC bias voltage across the two electrically-isolated waveguide halves, causing free electrons to diffuse out of the EC resonant region before they can cause an electron-impact ionisation-avalanche, and thus an EC breakdown. Due to insufficient experimental facilities, the functionality of the SBWG is validated through Monte Carlo electron modelling.
