First fluctuation measurements using an Imaging Neutral Particle Analyzer on DIII-D by K.R. Gage, X.D. Du, W.W. Heidbrink, J. Gonzalez-Martin, D. Liu, A.C. Brown

“…A recent upgrade to the Imaging Neutral Particle Analyzer (INPA) on DIII-D has allowed for the first fluctuation measurements using an INPA to be taken during a neoclassical tearing mode (NTM). The INPA signal tracked the mode over 150 ms as the mode frequency dropped to zero, capturing both the NTM with poloidal and toroidal mode numbers $m/n = 2/1$ and a $3/2$ mode at double the frequency. …”
