Abstract:
The ITER electron cyclotron upper launcher (EC UL) is used to direct high power microwave beams generated by the gyrotrons into the plasma for magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) control and heating and current drive (H&CD) applications. The UL consists of an assembly of ex-vessel waveguides (WGs) and an in-vessel port plug. The diamond window units form vacuum and tritium confinement boundaries between the torus volume and the transmission lines (TLs) which guide beams between 1 and 2 MW from the gyrotrons to the launcher.
