  • Abstract
    A general review is given of the experimental techniques used to measure physical properties of the high-temperature ionized gases encountered in controlled fusion research. Particular attention is given to the measurement of electron and ion kinetic temperatures by optical spectroscopy, electron density by microwave interferometry, and ionic composition by mass spectroscopy.
