Description

Series of neutral beams with ballistic focusing were developed in several recent years for fusion studies in Budker Insitute. Diagnostic neutral beam injectors for large stellarator W-7X and tokamak T-15 were produced and tested. A high power, relatively low energy neutral beam injector was developed to upgrade of the neutral beam system of the gas dynamic trap device and C2-U experiment. The ion source of the injector forms a proton beam with the particle energy of 15 keV, current of up to 175 A, and pulse duration up to 30 ms. In a first stage of the TCV upgrade program, a 1 MW tangentially launched neutral beam of Deuterium or Hydrogen was installed. Development of powerful steady state ion sources is discussed in the report.
