Electrode Biasing System in C-2W
October 2019 | V. Sokolov | APS-DPP | Poster
In TAE Technologies’ current experimental device, C-2W (also called “Norman”) [1], record breaking, advanced beam-driven field reversed configuration plasmas
Formation of Hot, Stable, Long-Lived Field-Reversed Configuration Plasmas on the C-2W Device
June 2019 | H. Gota | Nuclear Fusion | Paper
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.
Simulations of edge biasing and rotation in the C-2W FRC experiment using the Q2D code
October 2018 | M. Onofri | APS-DPP | Poster
We study the effects of end shorting and electrostatic biasing in simulations of the C-2W Field Reversed Configuration experiment using the Q2D code.
Vlasov Fokker Planck Study Of Electron Dynamics In Scrape Off Layer With Expander Divertor
October 2017 | S. Gupta | APS-DPP | Poster
C-2W goal is to increase electron temperature by reducing electron heat losses using expander divertor. FRC core is surrounded by the open field mirror system.
CHARACTERIZATION OF THE C-2W PLASMA GUNS
October 2017 | Ami M. Dubois | APS-DPP | Poster
Previous use of coaxial arc discharge plasma guns on the C-2U device exhibited great success in plasma stabilization and improved confinement.
Suppressed ion-scale turbulence in a hot high-beta plasma
December 2016 | L. Schmitz | Nature Communications | Paper
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.
