C-2 Fast Ion Studies
October 2011 | A. Smirnov | PPPL Seminar | Presentation
The merged FRCs in C-2 are suitable for high powered neutral beam injection (NBI) experiments. A versatile, robust and highly reliable NBI system was built.

September 2011 | S. Dettrick | ICNSP | Poster
We examine the use of the Thrust library [1] to accelerate on the GPU a Monte Carlo code used for Neutral Beam Injection in FRCs.
August 2011 | L. Galeotti | Physics of Plasmas | Paper
Axisymmetric equilibrium of a magnetically confined plasma with multiple ion species is considered. To describe hot plasmas with isothermal surfaces, we adopt a formulation consistent with zero poloidal ion flow.
August 2011 | H. Gota | Proceedings of ICC-2011 | Paper
A high temperature, stable, long-lived field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma state has been produced in the C-2 device by dynamically colliding and merging two oppositely directed, highly supersonic compact toroids (CTs).
August 2011 | H. Gota | ICC Workshop | Presentation
Demonstration of long-lived FRCs by dynamic merging Compact Toroids (CTs). Hot stable FRCs have been produced C-2 using the novel merging FRC technique, and plasma lifetime achieved record exceeding 2ms.
