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.

Neutral Beam Injection System for the C-2 Field Reversed Configuration Experiment
June 2011 | A. Smirnov | ICOPS-SOFE | Presentation
FRC Offers Significant Reactor Advantages. Compact Toroid Plasma with zero toroidal field and closed field lines produced by diamagnetic currents.
Neutral beam dump with cathodic arc titanium gettering
March 2011 | A. Smirnov | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper
An incomplete neutral beam capture can degrade the plasma performance in neutral beam driven plasma machines.
Measurement of Electron Density Profiles in the C-2 Merging FRC Experiment
November 2010 | B. Deng | APS-DPP | Poster
Plasma electron density profiles in the C-2 field reversed configuration (FRC) experiment are investigated. Measured profiles of translated FRC plasmas agree with MHD simulation results from the MHD code LamyRidge.
