Popis: A compact hard X-ray camera has been developed to study the behavior of fast electrons accelerated by lower hybrid waves in the TST-2 spherical tokamak. The camera consists of a pinhole made of tungsten alloy, a thin resin window, a thin LYSO scintillator disk, 5 fiber optic light guides and 5 photomultiplier tubes and shields. The camera is installed on a tangential port, and two-dimensional images are obtained by rotating the system around the axis of the port on a shot by shot basis. The typical energy range is 10 - 250 keV, and the energy resolution is about 100% (FWHM) at 100 keV. The measured images of a lower hybrid wave driven plasma show bright region at the inboard side (i.e., high field side).
