Consistent inference of the electron density and temperature has been carried out with multiple heterogeneous plasma diagnostic data sets at Wendelstein 7-X. The predictive models of the interferometer, Thomson scattering and helium beam…

Bayesian parameter inference depends on a choice of prior probability distribution for the parameters in question. The prior which makes the posterior distribution maximally sensitive to data is called the Jeffreys prior, and it is…
