Abstract
The diagnostic information from fusion neutron energy spectra under anisotr opic plasma conditions is investigated analytically and numerically. The io n anisotropy is parametrized by a Maxwellian velocity distribution with dif ferent temperatures along (T-parallel to) and across (T-perpendicular to) t he magnetic field. The (T-parallel to,T-perpendicular to) dependence of sel ected spectral moments (peak shift, width, and kurtosis) is studied for dif ferent viewing angles. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics.
