Description
Summary:The applicability of the HIBP for stellarator WEGA is described in this article. It is possible to use such diagnostics for local plasma parameters measurement. Calculations of probing Na + beam trajectories were done for WEGA magnetic configuration with B0 = 0.5 T. The trajectory optimization aiming for the maximal plasma observation was done for chosen entrance and exit port combination. The calculation showsthat HIBPallows getting radial profiles of plasma parameters. The detector line of equal entrance angle connects the central area and the edge of the plasma column for beam energy E =30-60 keV. The detector line of equal energy E = 40 keV allowsto obtain series of radial profiles during single shot by changing of the beam entrance angle with the scan of control voltage.
