  2. SSNPA Measures Fast Ions that Charge Exchange with Injected Neutral Beams Δt~2ms, ΔE~10keV Energy range (35~110keV)

  3. Slowing Down of Beam Ions in MHD-quiescentPlasmas is Consistent with Classical Behavior

  4. Slowing Down of Beam Ions in MHD-quiescentPlasmas is Consistent with Classical Behavior (cont’d) The decay time of the neutrons also agrees with the classical theory.

  5. 40~50 keV 50~60 keV 60~70 keV 70~80 keV 80~90 keV 90~ 100 keV Case 1: All Four Chords are Depleted low Energy high

  6. Case 2: Inner Chords Decrease, Outer Chords Increase

  7. Case 2: Inner Chords Decrease, Outer Chords Increase (cont’d) At t=0.25~0.45s, Ch1 decreased, Ch3 higher energy channels and Ch4 Increased. 40~50 KeV 50~60 keV 60~70 keV 70~80 KeV 80~90 KeV 90~ 100KeV Shot 119900 Chord 1 Rtan=60cm Chord 4 Rtan=120cm Chord 3 Rtan=100cm

  8. Case 3: Some Channels are Correlated with Neutron Drops • Some channels of SSNPA are correlated with neutron drops and MHD activity. • The dips lead, bursts lag. • Larger effects on high energy channels.

  9. Summary • In MHD-quiescent Plasmas, fast ions behave classically. • Slowing down of full energy beam ions is observed and slowing down time is consistent with classical theory; • Neutron decay time also agrees with classical theory; • Plan to check pitch angle scattering. • In the presence of MHD activity: • Signals of some SSNPA channels are often correlated with neutron drops and MHD activity; • Several different types of SSNPA behavior are observed and not fully understood; • Plan to select typical cases and study the effects of MHD activity on fast ion distribution.
