Demonstration of a two-dimensional divertor Thomson scattering system on DIII-D.

Recent upgrades providing two-dimensional divertor Thomson scattering (DTS-2D) measurements of Te and ne during a DIII-D plasma shot and a thorough description of system components and their functionality are presented. This system expands the capabilities of the existing single divertor Floor measurement location by introducing seven additional laser beam path options in the poloidal plane, spanning major radii from 1.062 to 1.
