Abstract
The paper describes applications of solid-state nuclear track detectors (SSNTDs) of the PM-355 type for diagnostics of fusion-reaction protons emitted from high-temperature deuterium plasmas. The results of our calibration studies of SSNTDs and fusion-proton measurements, carried out within two plasma-focus facilities (PF-360 and PF-1000), are presented. The main aim of those studies was to perform time-integrated measurements of 3 MeV fusion-reaction protons by means of ion-pinhole cameras equipped with the PM-355 detectors, placed at different angles relative to the axis of PF-360 and PF-1000 facilities.
