FRC core strongly stable! Finite SOL turbulence. Both FLR and gradient-B effects stabilizing. Qualitative agreement with measure doppler backscattering.

C-2U is a unique hybrid field-reversed configuration (FRC) where we successfully combine a high-beta (~1) FRC plasma with neutral beam injection (NBI), field line biasing, and mirror physics.

An economic magnetic fusion reactor favours a high ratio of plasma kinetic pressure to magnetic pressure in a well-confined, hot plasma with low thermal losses across the confining magnetic field.

C-2U is a macroscopically stable, high-performance field-reversed configuration (HPF), where high plasma temperatures with significant fast-ion population and record lifetimes were achieved.

The C-2U facility at TAE Technologies creates an advanced, beam-driven FRC with large ion orbits. The plasma is sustained for > 5ms.
