The principle and motivation of omegatron
The operation principle is based on ion mass separation as ions move in a variable RF electric field normal to an axial magnetic field. The Lorentz force causes ions to circulate at the ion cyclotron frequency. When the RF frequency is set to be resonant with the cyclotron motion of the ions, the ions will receive energy from that electric field and therefore travel in orbits of constantly increasing radius. However, non-resonant ions may initially gain energy, but then experience an energy loss as their velocities become out of phase with the applied RF electric field, forming contracting and expanding spirals of some limited radial extent..

Conclusions
HT-7
(1)The relation between the current collected at the back plate and the electron repeller voltage and trap voltage was investigated in the experiment. It seems that there exists optimized working point for omegatron operation.(2) The local ion parallel ion temperature of bulk plasma has been measured through fitting. (3)We have successfully measured the 3He2+ andand D+

(1) Local acquisition to improve s/n ratio
(2) Impendence matching to improve the coupling between RF and ions
(3)Grids added to decelerate the ions in two dependent areas
