Abstract

This work presents a review of all the main methods and instruments for plasma diagnostics currently used for linear axis-symmetric plasma traps, commonly used as ion sources for accelerators and for studies of plasma physics. The simultaneous use of different diagnostics, either invasive or non-invasive, allows the characterization of the whole electron energy distribution function from a few eV to hundreds of keV. The development of space-resolved and time-resolved plasma diagnostics, moreover, is expected to further improve our knowledge of the wave-to-plasma coupling and of plasma instabilities (like the cyclotron maser), with consequences on the upgrade of existing ion sources, but also on the understanding of many astrophysical phenomena.
