Abstract
A diagnostic to measure the loss of energetic ions from the Wendelstein 7-A S (W7-AS) stellarator has been built. It is capable of measuring losses of both neutral beam ions and energetic ions arising from ion cyclotron resona nt heating. The probe can measure losses of both clockwise and counterclock wise-going energetic ions simultaneously, and accepts a wide range of pitch angles in both directions. Initial measurements by the diagnostic are repo rted. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
