Modeling ITER Fusion Emissions

Using XICSRT to trace X-Ray Emissions from D-T Fusion

As part of my work at the SULI program, I created an application that traces and predicts the path of X-rays leaving the chamber of the reactor on ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor), the largest fusion reactor in the world.

Features

  • Tracing X-Rays emitted from fusion reactions emitted from the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). This was done with a receiver on a port diagonistic mounted on Port 22 of ITER. These X-Rays were received by a Mosaic crystal and then received at a detector mounted about 6 meters away.
