abstract = {X-ray ray tracing is used to develop ion-temperature
corrections for the analysis of the X-ray Imaging Crystal
Spectrometer (XICS) used at Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) and
perform verification on the analysis methods. The XICS is a
powerful diagnostic able to measure ion-temperature,
electron-temperature, plasma flow, and impurity charge state
densities. While these systems are relatively simple in
design, accurate characterization of the instrumental
response and validation of analysis techniques are difficult
to perform experimentally due to the requirement of extended
x-ray sources. For this reason, a ray tracing model has been
developed that allows characterization of the spectrometer
and verification of the analysis methods while fully
considering the real geometry of the XICS system and W7-X
plasma. Through the use of ray tracing, several important
corrections have been found that must be accounted for in
order to accurately reconstruct the ion-temperature
profiles. The sources of these corrections are described
along with their effect on the analyzed profiles. The
implemented corrections stem from three effects: (1) effect
of sub-pixel intensity distribution during de-curving and
spatial binning, (2) effect of sub-pixel intensity
distribution during forward model evaluation and generation
of residuals, and (3) effect of defocus and spherical
aberrations on the instrumental response. Possible
improvements to the forward model and analysis procedures
are explored, along with a discussion of trade-offs in terms
of computational complexity. Finally, the accuracy of the
tomographic inversion technique in stellarator geometry is
investigated, providing for the first time a verification
exercise for inversion accuracy in stellarator geometry and
a complete XICS analysis tool-chain.},
