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

“…Simulated measurements in the range of pitches that the diagnostic is sensitive to ( $0.5\unicode{x2A7D} \left| \frac{v_{\parallel}}{v} \right| \unicode{x2A7D} 0.75$ ) show the signal is dominated by trapped orbits that pass through magnetic islands near the edge of the plasma. Calculations of expected fluctuation levels show that only direct interaction with the NTM can provide the strong relative fluctuation levels seen experimentally. …”
