Abstract

Recent experiments at JET aimed at producing ⁴He ions in the MeV range through third harmonic ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) acceleration of ⁴He beams in a ⁴He dominated plasma. MeV range D was also present through parasitic ICRH absorption on residual D. In this contribution, we analyze TOFOR neutron spectrometer data from these experiments. A consistent description of the data is obtained with d(d,n) ³He and ⁹Be(α,n)¹²C neutron components calculated using Stix distributions for the fast D and ⁴He, taking finite Larmor radius effects into account and with a ICRH power partition of P_D^RF =0.01× P_4He^RF, in agreement with TOMCAT simulations.
