摘要
Many motional Stark effect diagnostics around the world make use of a calibration procedure in which the observed neutral beam is injected into a gas-filled torus with known vacuum fields. The instrument is calibrated by reconciling measured angles with vacuum magnetic reconstructions through a range of pitch angles. This in situ gas-filled torus calibration most closely approximates the working conditions of the diagnostic and includes effects such as beam and viewing geometries, beam voltages, Faraday and stress induced birefringence (in most cases) of the transmissive optics, as well as the polarimeter response. However, secondary neutrals, produced after ionization then reneutralization of a beam neutral, have been found to contaminate measured angles by emitting Balmer alpha with similar Doppler shifts and Stark polarizations as beam neutrals, but with different polarization angles. Simulation results that show spectral and angle behavior versus calibration parameters such as fill gas pressure will be presented. Data from NSTX and C-Mod will be compared to simulations results.
