The study of the properties of edge plasma, in particular , the plasma rotation speed, in toroidal traps is associated with the search for ways to increase the efficiency and reliability of the thermonuclear reactor. One of the methods for measuring the rate of poloidal plasma rotation in tokamaks and stellarators is Doppler reflectometry (DR). The Doppler reflectometer is designed to work as part of the experimental L-2M device to measure the rates of its poloidal rotation, as well as to measure the spatial-frequency spectra of plasma density fluctuations [1]. Diagnostics of high-temperature plasma in magnetic confinement systems is associated with a variety of problems and requires atypical engineering solutions. The powerful sources of microwave radiation (gyrotrons) used to heat the plasma [2] interfere with the detection of low-power diagnostic signals. To isolate such signals, it is necessary to provide high suppression at the ECR frequency of heating 75 GHz and to provide low attenuation at the diagnosis frequency of 30-40 GHz. The created system for filtering electromagnetic radiation consists of a band-stop filter based on a Fabry-Perot resonator and three, pin-shaped waveguide filters [3]. The CAD EMPro Keysight Technologies in a three-dimensional geometry of band-stop filter was represented as a few pairs of contiguous mica plates arranged successively at a distance from each other. Simulation of a microwave filter based on a Fabry-Perot resonator for microwave diagnostics of Doppler reflectometry, made it possible to construct an experimental filter sample with characteristics close to the given ones. The report presents the results of the development , modeling and experimental study of a filter based on a Fabry-Perot (FP) resonator. The introduction of the filter system made it possible to successfully carry out experimental measurements of the spectra of DR in the L-2M stellarator with an ECR heating power density of up to 3.4 MW/m 3. The aim of the research was to create conditions for the stable operation of DR in conditions of powerful heating ECR radiation. To reduce the effect of an external signal with a frequency of 75.3 GHz and noise in the range 60-80 GHz, it was necessary to create a new filtering system. In the filtration system we used band-stop filters. The task of these filters is to provide large attenuation (suppression) in a certain frequency range Δf near the central frequency f 0. The system of filters for diagnostics of DR consists of three pin-waveguide filters and filter based on Fabry-Perot resonator made of mica plates. In view of the design features of the diagnostics (in particular, the overall dimensions of the waveguide paths) the installation of additional pin filters, was not possible. It was required to design and manufacture a compact band-stop filter with a central suppression frequency of 75 GHz. A filter was proposed from the sequence of Fabry-Perot resonators. Millimeter and submillimeter filters based on the Fabry-Perot resonator are actively used in various di...

The distilled water was exposed to a cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) generated by the piezotransformer. The treatment was carried out on a six-well plate. Exposure time was from 30 s to 10 min. The emission spectra were obtained. Physical and chemical changes of activated water were observed for 8 days. The reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) were investigated. RONS production dependence on the exposure time and RONS lifetime in the treated liquid was determined using absorbance spectra. Quantitative assessment was made of the nitrite and nitrate concentration change over time after treatment. The medium conductivity and redox potential varied linearly depending on exposure time. The pH value change correlates with nitrate anion concentration. The concentration of peroxide hydrogen increased depending on CAP water treatment duration. The RONS concentration after liquid media processing with piezoelectric direct discharge CAP is a novel result. Biogeosystem Technique provides CAP activated water agriculture synergetic effect.
