Sumario:The paper presents results of studies of the fast ion emission from two plasma facilities: PF-1000 and PF-II. The measurements were carried out mainly with solid-state nuclear track detectors (SSNTDs). To register ion mass- and energy-spectra, obtained when primary ion beams are deflected by magnetic and electric fields of a Thomson-type spectrometer, the SSNTDs plates were installed inside the analyzer. To measure ion angular distributions the SSNTDs were located within the main discharge chamber, at different angles to the electrode axis. The SSNTDs were also applied to register ion beam images formed within an ion pinhole camera, and to determine a spatial location of the fast ion sources.
