Abstract
Electromagnetic waves of medium power (P=110 W) in the submillimeter range (f=354 GHz) are generated in long pulses (τ=0.6 s) by a submillimeter wave gyrotron. The fluctuation levels of output power are suppressed within 8% by optimizing the operating parameters. This output has been applied to plasma scattering measurements. Preliminary results of low‐frequency density fluctuations in Compact Helical System plasma are presented.Keywords
