A multichannel neutral-analyzer system developed for the analysis of charge-exchange flux from magnetically confined plasma is described. The system uses tandem magnetic–electrostatic deflection of ions produced from neutrals stripped in a gas cell to obtain the energy spectra of specific charge-to-mass-ratio species. The analyzer is collimated with a spatial resolution of 2 cm FWHM at the plasma and is movable so that radial scans of charge-exchange flux can be made. Data are recorded digitally, allowing frequency response of fluctuations in charge-exchange flux up to 50 kHz. The calibration procedure employs an auxiliary single-channel analyzer calibrated over the full energy range of the multichannel instrument with an atomic-beam setup. Typical data obtained from the 2XIIB neutral-beam-injected mirror machine are briefly presented.
