The C-2W real time inference and plasma control system
October 2018 | J. Romero | APS-DPP | Poster
Efficient neutral beam capture and retention requires maintenance of plasma axisymmetry to avoid stochastic diffusion losses.
Preliminary Results of Multi-pulse Compact Toroid Refueling in the C-2W Field-Reversed Configuration
October 2018 | I. Allfrey | APS-DPP | Poster
Abstract One of the limiting factors in the lifetime of a field- reversed configuration (FRC) is particle loss.
Overview of C-2W Field-Reversed Configuration Experimental Program
October 2018 | H. Gota | APS-DPP | Poster
TAE Technologies research is devoted to producing high temperature, stable, long-lived field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasmas by neutral-beam injection (NBI) and edge biasing/control.
Increased Ionization Efficiency for High Performance CT Injection
October 2018 | F. Tanaka | APS-DPP | Poster
A magnetized coaxial plasma gun (MCPG) is one of the devices used to generate and accelerate a compact toroid (CT) with a spheromak-like magnetic configuration.
Formation And Translation Experiments On The C-2W Experiment
October 2018 | E. Trask | APS-DPP | Poster
Increased stored energy, improved pulsed power reliability, and dynamic control of magnetic fields have allowed creation of FRC targets with improved characteristics.
