Microwave measurement of plasma density fluctuation amplitudes

A microwave beam is used to detect ion-cyclotron oscillations in the 2XIIB mirror device. A model is used to estimate electron density and electric field oscillation amplitudes from measured modulation sideband intensities. Semiquantitative agreement is obtained with electrostatic probe measurements...

Zusammenfassung:A microwave beam is used to detect ion-cyclotron oscillations in the 2XIIB mirror device. A model is used to estimate electron density and electric field oscillation amplitudes from measured modulation sideband intensities. Semiquantitative agreement is obtained with electrostatic probe measurements.
