- In this paper we investigate the possibility of using a NE213 liquid scintillator as aneutron spectrometer to diagnose the fast ion tails produced in experiments with 3rd harmonicradio-frequency heating.We discuss mainly the instrumental effects that need to be considered and corrected for in orderto obtain a good agreement between measured data and models: gain drift, pile-up, impact of theassumption of a standard proton light yield function. We also address problems related to thepresence of triton burn-up events in the spectrum.The expected ion distribution is obtained from a simple 1D Fokker-Planck model. The parametersof the model are estimated using the data collected by the TOFOR neutron spectrometer.The agreement between the data and the model is good and it is possible to make a clear distinctionbetween discharges that had different electron densities and thus different cut-off energies. Wecan conclude that NE213 scintillators can provide useful spectroscopic information for this kind ofexperiments.
