Recent progress with the MAST synthetic aperture imaging radiometer

The MAST Synthetic Aperture Microwave Imaging (SAMI) radiometer is an antenna array designed to image thermal microwave emission from MAST fusion plasmaaSAMl is now installed on MAST and preliminary data has been taken. This data clearly show the presence of electrostatic to electromagnetic mode con...
