A Multiphysics Ray Optics Model for the Propagation of Electromagnetic Waves in Plasmas and the Design of Laser-Based Diagnostics in Nuclear Fusion Reactors

Laser-based methods are widely used techniques for thermonuclear plasma diagnostics, since they can probe the internal of the plasma, being contactless and non-invasive. The interferometer, the polarimeter and Thomson scattering are the most widespread techniques, providing line-integral information...
