Overview of C-2 field-reversed configuration experiment plasma diagnostics

August 2014 | H. Gota | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper

A comprehensive diagnostic suite for field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasmas has been developed and installed on the C-2 device at TAE Technologies to investigate the dynamics of FRC formation as well as to understand key FRC physics properties, e.g., confinement and stability, throughout a discharge.
