Plasma Spectroscopy Diagnostician

Key details

• Lead the design and build of spectroscopic diagnostics to be deployed on the Alpha stellarator to measure spatial profiles of ion temperature, impurity concentration, and flow
• Develop a detailed diagnostic specification able to deliver the measurement performance required from the various stellarator plasma spectroscopic diagnostics planned for Alpha: Charge exchange emission in the visible, Crystal spectrometer in the X-ray region and various wide band spectroscopic systems to monitor impurity emission from the visible through vacuum ultraviolet and into the XUV range
• Work with the engineering team on Alpha to establish a robust implementation of each spectroscopic diagnostic
• Prepare and execute plans for all the steps required to implement the diagnostic and bring it into operations: design, procure, build, test, install, commission, calibrate, operate and maintain
• Oversee and undertake/delegate/subcontract packages of work as part of the plan to ensure successful completion of all spectroscopic diagnostics
• Company mission
• Proxima Fusion is developing the hardware and infrastructure needed to deliver the world's first commercial stellarator fusion power plant
