Description:
A polarimeter has been designed to measure Faraday rotation and help to understand the profile of its safety factor, q, on the recently built SPECTOR magnetized target fusion machine at General Fusion. The polarimeter uses two counter-rotating, circularly polarized, 118.8 μ m beams to probe the plasma. Grad-Shafranov simulations have been used to investigate the effect of measurement error and chord geometry.
