Specific features of the energy distributions of fast ions during neutral beam injection at the Globus-М tokamak are considered. Different loss mechanisms that can lead to the formation of a specific shape of the energy spectrum of superthermal ions are analyzed. The effect of sawtooth oscillations on the loss of fast ions is discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
