Now preparation for usage of intensive beams of prompt deuterium atoms for a heating and maintenance of plasma in trailer mirror machines of the “Ambal-M” installation is carried on. In sectional operation measuring neutron fluxes generated in fusion reactions as a result of interaction deutons of a beam with atoms of residual gas of deuterium in the cabinet at passage of an ion beam through an injector channel are conducted. The measured quantities of neutron fluxes are in good conformity with calculations. The offered procedure of recording of neutrons will successfully be utilized as monitoring powerful of a deuterium bundle in an injector channel.
