A machine learning approach has been implemented to measure the electron temperature directly from the emission spectra of a tokamak plasma. This approach utilized a neural network (NN) trained on a dataset of 1865 time slices from operation of the DIII-D tokamak using extreme ultraviolet / vacuum ultraviolet (EUV/VUV) emission spectroscopy matched with high-accuracy divertor Thomson scattering measurements of the electron temperature, $T_e$. This NN is shown to be particularly good at predicting $T_e$ at low temperatures ($T_e < 10$ eV) where the NN demonstrated a mean average error of less than 1 eV. Trained to detect plasma detachment in the tokamak divertor, a NN classifier was able to correctly identify detached states ($T_e<5$ eV) with a 99% accuracy (F$_1$ score of 0.96) at an acquisition rate $10times$ faster than the Thomson scattering measurement. The performance of the model is understood by examining a set of 4800 theoretical spectra generated using collisional radiative modeling that was also used to predict the performance of a low-cost spectrometer viewing nitrogen emission in the visible wavelengths. These results provide a proof-of-principle that low-cost spectrometers leveraged with machine learning can be used both to boost the performance of more expensive diagnostics on fusion devices, and be used independently as a fast and accurate $T_e$ measurement and detachment classifier.
We show that the charge accumulated by a dielectric plasma-facing solid can be measured by infrared spectroscopy. The approach utilizes a stack of materials supporting a surface plasmon resonance in the infrared. For frequencies near the Berreman res

The GlueX forward calorimeter is an array of 2800 lead glass modules that was constructed to detect photons produced in the decays of hadrons. A background to this process originates from hadronic interactions in the calorimeter, which, in some insta

In this work we provide experimental insights into the impact of plasma-molecule interactions on the target ion flux decrease during divertor detachment achieved through a core density ramp in the TCV tokamak. Our improved analysis of the hydrogen Ba
