The experimental goals of the C-2W program are to demonstrate the ability to heat and maintain a field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma to a total temperature of several keV for a period of 30 ms.

Flexible control systems for all three of these actuators are available on the C-2W experiment, so we study their effects on FRC Equilibrium and Global Stability

TAE Technology’s C-2W experiment has been operational for over 18 months and has produced long-lived field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasmas.

One of the key advantages of using two different spectral regions (VIS and NIR) to measure bremsstrahlung continuum is that they have different pollutant sensitivities

In an hypothetical isolated mirror (with no net current flow), an ambipolar electric potential modifies the loss cone so electrons are lost at the same rate as ions.

The purpose of the C-2W experiment is to demonstrate control, stability and heating of a Field-Reversed Configuration (FRC) plasma via magnetic controls …
