Diagnostics for ITER

Abstract

After an introduction into the specific challenges in the field of diagnostics for ITER (specifically high level of nuclear radiation, long pulses, high fluxes of particles to plasma facing components, need for reliability and robustness), an overview will be given of the spectroscopic diagnostics foreseen for ITER. The paper will describe both active neutral‐beam based diagnostics as well as passive spectroscopic diagnostics operating in the visible, ultra‐violet and x‐ray spectral regions.
