The formulation of magnetic diagnostic response functions for a three-dimensional stellarator plasma is described. Reciprocity relations are used to compute unique response functions for each type of magnetic diagnostic. Green’s function response tables (databases) are generated from which both external coil and internal plasma current contributions to diagnostic signals can be rapidly computed. Applications to compact stellarators are described. © 2004 American Institute of Physics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
