Doppler backscattering (DBS) is a microwave diagnostics method typically used to study the plasma rotation velocity. Apart from conventional techniques, more advanced forms of DBS implementation were suggested on Globus-M. More specifically the study of a variety of oscillating processes was performed using DBS. In this review we present a detailed description of all of the methods and techniques employed in Globus-M alongside results obtained using DBS in all the years up until the shutdown of the tokamak. These include research similar to that done on other devices into the properties of such phenomena like geodesic acoustic modes or limit cycle oscillations, along with innovative works regarding the detection and investigation of Alfven eigenmodes and filaments that were the first of their kind and that provided important and novel results. Apart from that, the specific aspects of DBS application on a spherical tokamak are discussed. An in-depth look into the gradual change and improvement of the DBS diagnostics on Globus-M is also presented in this paper. |
