title = "Measurements of mode converted ion cyclotron wave with phase contrast imaging in Alcator C-Mod and comparisons with synthetic PCI simulations in TORIC",
abstract = "Mode converted ion cyclotron wave (ICW) has been observed with phase contrast imaging (PCI) in D-3He plasmas in Alcator C-Mod [1, 2]. The measurements were carried out with the optical heterodyne technique using acousto-optic modulators which modulate the CO2 laser beam intensity near the ion cyclotron frequency [3]. With recently improved calibration of the PCI system using a calibrated sound wave source, the measurements have been compared with the full-wave code TORIC, as interpreted by a synthetic diagnostic. Because of the line-integrated nature of the PCI signal, the predictions are sensitive to the exact wave field pattern. The simulations are found to be in qualitative agreement with the measurements.",
