§3. Current Status of the YAG Laser System for LHD Thomson Scattering

Yamada, 1., Narihara, K., Hayashi, H., Yamauchi, K.

The LHD Y AG Thomson Scattering (TS) begun to work in the second cycle LHD experiment, and provide a large number of data on electron temperature and density profiles of LHD plasmas. The basic features have been already reported [1]. An example of measured electron temperature profiles is shown in Fig.1.

The temporal and spatial resolutions are 20 msec and about 20 mm, respectively. The large scatters during the initial ECH discharge are due to low electron densities. For high density NB heated plasmas, reliable temperature data are obtained.

In the experiment, we have verified that the Y AG- TS works well for temperature measurements, but the data quality in density profiles is somewhat poor.

The poor data quality in density measurements may be due to the insufficient pointing stability of the Y AG laser used. In the LHD Y AG-TS, the beam transport length is about 50 m, and then very accurate laser transport system is required. We have made some improvements for

the laser system in order to construct stable and accurate laser control system. We believe that the most effective method to obtain required beam stability is using an active feedback controlled steering mirror system, which has been already developed and now checked carefully. The control system will be equipped and operated in the next experiment.

In addition to the fundamental improvements, a multi beam system will be in operation in the third cycle experiment. The multibeam system has been already successfully applied to the CHS Y AG-TS. In the system, up to seven lasers are used whereas single laser used in the second experiment. Two fundamental operational modes are planed; high repetition rate (200 Hz) or high power (2

mode. The former will be useful when rapid plasma phenomena observed, and more reliable measurements may be possible in the later mode even for low density plasmas.
