Abstract: Knowledge of the energy spectrum of fast ions in magnetically confined fusion plasmas is important and fundamental for achieving fusion energy production. Collective Thomson scattering (CTS) of high-power electromagnetic radiation is one of the most promising diagnostic methods for measuring the energy spectrum of confined fast ions. A CTS diagnostic has been implemented on the TEXTOR tokamak for the study of fast ions. It uses a 400 kW, 110 GHz gyrotron source as the probe and a high-resolution heterodyne radiometer as the receiver. Details of the system are given in this article. First results from the diagnostic show that scattered radiation has been detected. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
