Abstract Measuring fusion neutron spectra can give essential information on ion fuel ratio and temperature in the plasma core, which are goals of High-Resolution Neutron Spectrometry (HRNS) ITER. At highest powers, this role is foreseen to be fulfilled by a Thin-foil Proton Recoil (TPR) system with ΔE-E silicon detectors. The concept performing TPR spectroscopy Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM), so-called NS-GEM, instead solid-state detectors has recently been proposed [6]. Based simulation...

In fusion plasmas, essential plasma parameters can be inferred from x-ray and neutron measurements. The analysis of emitted spectra give access to the fuel ion ratio temperature, while local emissivity contains information about electron magnetic axis, concentration impurities that estimated with help dedicated tomographic inversion synthetic diagnostic tools. We report on ongoing efforts diagnostics tokamak plasmas. A methodology determine core impurity temperature multiple line-integrated...
