Abstract

It is shown that a secondary electron emission-capacitive probe can determine the plasma potential when T_e ≥50 eV. The probe is wideband (1 Hz to greater than 20 MHz) and relatively simple to operate. The Phaedrus-B tandem mirror plasma where T_e ∼40-60 eV and n≅5×10¹² cm^-3 is used to verify this technique.
