Integration studies of RF solid-state generators in the electrical system of NBTF experiments and ITER HNB
R. Casagrande, A. Maistrello, M. Recchia +5
SPIDER operation, started in 2018, pointed out performance-limiting issues caused by the technology employed in RF generators, based on tetrode free-running oscillators. One of the…
Spider Ion Source and Extraction Power Supplies -- An update of the design after four years of operation
A. Shepherd, M. Bigi, R. Casagrande +6
SPIDER, the ion source prototype for ITER neutral beam injectors, has been in operation since 2018. The experiment includes a system of Ion Source and Extraction Power Supplies (IS…
