Without magnetic perturbations, NBI energy confinement time is ~500ms. Most NBI energy goes on heating electrons. Supports the interpretation of HPF results.

We find beam stability of the tilt mode, in agreement with Barnes & Milroy, when similar beam and plasma parameters are applied.

A Quasi-1D (Q1D) transport code is developed at Tri Alpha for predicting and interpreting the macroscopic time evolution of FRC plasmas.

We report on progress made in using the NIMROD [2] code to simulate formation, translation and merging of FRCs in the C-2 experiment [1]. This sequence is simulated in 2D and 3D, with and without inclusion of the Hall term.

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.
