A more open future for nuclear research
A growing number of institutional, national, and funder mandates are requiring researchers to make their published work immediately publicly accessible, through either open repositories or open access (OA) publications. In addition, both private and public funders are developing policies, such as those from the Office of Science and Technology Policy and the European Commission, that ask researchers to make publicly available at the time of publication as much of their underlying data and other materials as possible. These, combined with movement in the scientific community toward embracing open science principles (seen, for example, in the dramatic rise of preprint servers like arXiv), demonstrate a need for a different kind of publishing outlet.

A set of diagnostics for plasma spectroscopy was developed for multimiror trap GOL-3. It includes survey spectrometer with spatial resolution and the high spectral resolution complex for line shape analysis. The systems allow recording waveforms of plasma radiation with spectral resolution of 0.01 nm and measure spatial distribution of line radiation intensity (simultaneously in π and σ components).
Analysis of radiation spectra was used for investigation of impurities structure and dynamics. Precise measurements of spectral line shape were used for finding the electron density and ion temperature from a line broadening. Description of the equipment and experimental technique as well the recent results are presented in the paper.
