Abstract
The GAMMA10 tandem mirror contains neutral beam injectors at the anchor mir ror cells to increase the number of high-energy ions there for magnetohydro dynamic stability. We calculate the population of high-energy ions by using the bounce-averaged Fokker-Planck code for various background neutral dens ities and electron temperatures. We compare the simulation results with res ults of a point model and make clear the validity of the point model.
