Abstract
A beam injection experiment with the negative-ion based NBI system (N-NBI) started in March 1996 on JT-60U. After achieving the first neutral beam injection of 180 keV, ∼0.1 MW for 0.4 s into the JT-60U plasmas, the operation parameters of the ion source and power supply had been optimized for increasing the beam energy and beam current. In September 1996, a deuterium neutral beam of 2.5 MW at 350 keV was injected into JT-60U using two ion sources. In the operation with hydrogen at the beginning of 1997, a negative ion beam current of 18.4 A at 350 keV has been obtained, and a neutral beam of 3.2 MW at 350 keV for 1 s has been injected into the plasma with one ion source. A neutralization efficiency of negative ion beam has been confirmed to be about 60% at the beam energies of 250–385 keV as predicted theoretically.
