A fast Fourier transform based Abel inversion technique is proposed. The method is faster than previously used techniques, potentially very accurate (even for a relatively small number of points), and capable of handling large data sets. The technique is discussed in the context of its use with 2-D digital interferogram analysis algorithms. Several examples are given.

Development of a multi-channel visible bremsstrahlung measurement system for the effective charge in the versatile experiment spherical torus (VEST).

A diagnostic system for measuring the effective charge in the versatile experiment spherical torus (VEST) has been developed. The system utilizes a toroidal array to observe the plasma radius on the low magnetic field side, providing a spatially resolved Zeff. The target wavelength of visible bremsstrahlung (VB) was carefully selected to avoid contamination by line emissions.

A soft x-ray (SX) diagnostic system has been designed and installed in JT-60SA for the first plasma. For quantitative measurement, the etendue of each viewing chord was evaluated analytically and numerically. The electron temperature is evaluated from the detected bremsstrahlung emission ratio between two detector arrays with two different thicknesses of Be filters.

The indirect measurement of shock waveforms by acousto-optic sensing requires a method to reconstruct the field from the projected data. Under the assumption of spherical symmetry, one approach is to reconstruct the field by the Abel inversion integral transform. When the acousto-optic sensing modality measures the change in optical phase difference time derivative, as for a heterodyne Mach-Zehnder interferometer, e.

In the tokamak ASDEX Upgrade, Integrated Data Analysis (IDA) is used to infer plasma quantities, such as electron density, using heterogeneous data sources. Essential is forward modeling from the parameter space into the data space with physically reasonable models for probabilistic evaluation. This paper presents a new forward model for O-mode profile reflectometry, a necessary prerequisite for Bayesian inference and inclusion in IDA.

We present a new method based on a 1D extinction measurement in correlation with a video taken at an acute angle. It works well with limited optical access and has a good time resolution (at least several hertz).
