摘要：
Plasma position on CASTOR tokamak is measured by several systems based on different experimental methods. Vertical and horizontal plasma displacements are deduced from data of 4 Mirnov coils spaced poloidaly by 45 degrees. Output of the Mirnov coils is routinely used as an input for automatic feed-back control of plasma position on CASTOR. Independently, we used an array of 16 Hall sensors, which measure the required magnetic field directly. Additional information on plasma position is obtained from two arrays of bolometers that measure horizontal and vertical profile of plasma radiation. Principle design of the all used diagnostics is given. Comparison of horizontal and vertical displacements deduced using various experimental methods is presented.
