Abstract

Summary form only given, as follows. A prototype KSTAR Neural Beam Injection (NBI) system has been constructed. The NBI system is composed of a large vacuum chamber (3 m /spl times/ 4 m /spl times/ 5 m) for installing beam line components, a neutralizing gas cell, a bending magnet, an ion dump, a calorimeter, cryosorption panels (0.6 million litter/sec) for vacuum pumping, machine control & monitoring modules (PXI based), diagnostics systems for beam parameter measurements, and water circulation systems for beam line cooling. The performance of the prototype KSTAR NBI system with an ion source including needed power supplies for the source operation, which was developed also as a prototype for the KSTAR NBI system, is described.
