2022-10-26 Development of wavelength calibration techniques for high-resolution x-ray imaging crystal spectrometers on the EAST tokamak doi:10.57760/sciencedb.04515 en Newly developed large-area pixelated two-dimensional detector and two-crystal assemblies were deployed for the first time on tokamaks to enable time-resolved Bragg-diffracted x-ray imaging with good framing rate and water-cooling capabilities for in-vacuum long-pulse operations. High-quality helium-like (He-like) and hydrogen-like (H-like) argon spectra have been observed simultaneously for the first time on a single detector for a wide range of plasma parameters to infer both ion temperature and rotation profiles and support studies on spontaneous rotation, impurity transport, and RF physics. Since tokamak plasmas rotate in both the poloidal (theta) and toroidal (phi) directions, a reliable wavelength calibration is needed to account for the correct Doppler shift as well as to compute the spectrometer's instrumental function. Ly(alpha) lines emitted from Cd x-ray tubes are proposed to be used as "markers" to provide an in situ calibration of the EAST's X-ray imaging crystal spectrometer systems measuring He-and H-like argon spectra. The first lab test indicated that the X-ray tube can excite strong Ly(alpha) lines at 15 kV voltage and 1 mA current when the crystal is shined for 10 min. Other indirect calibration methods using locked-mode discharge scenarios were also studied as complementary methods. fusion plasma; plasma diagnostics; x-ray crystal spectrometer Bo Lv Hongming Zhang PUBLIC https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ dataset http://www.doi.org/10.1063/1.5039314 Science Data Bank
