Cavity-Enhanced Photodetachment of H− as a Means to Produce Energetic Neutral Beams for Plasma Heating

Neutral beam injection, for plasma heating, will supposedly be achieved, in ITER, by collisional detachment of a pre-accelerated D − beam. Collisional detachment, however, makes use of a D 2 -filled neutralisation chamber, which has severe drawbacks, including the necessity...
