Development of a polarization resolved spectroscopic diagnostic for measurements of the vector magnetic field in the Caltech coaxial magnetized plasma jet experiment
In the Caltech coaxial magnetized plasma jet experiment, fundamental studies are carried out relevant
to spheromak formation, astrophysical jet formation/propagation, solar coronal physics, and
the general behavior of twisted magnetic flux tubes that intercept a boundary. In order to measure the
spatial profile of the magnetic field vector for understanding the underlying physics governing the dynamical
behavior, a non-perturbing visible emission spectroscopic method is implemented to observe
the Zeeman splitting in emission spectra. We have designed and constructed a polarization-resolving
optical system that can simultaneously detect the left- and right-circularly polarized emission. The
system is applied to singly ionized nitrogen spectral lines. The magnetic field strength is measured
with a precision of about ±13 mT. The radial profiles of the azimuthal and axial vector magnetic
field components are resolved by using an inversion method
