Develop 2-D Interpretative equilibrium solver SEquOIA (Synthetic Equilibrium from Observables Interpretative Algorithm) for long lived steady state C-2W plasma
June 2022 | J. Romero | TOFE | Presentation
C-2W is the world’s first steady-state FRC with fusion relevant parameters, C-2W machine and diagnostics are upgraded often in response to the research needs.

In the TAE C-2W experiment, confinement and stability of Field Reversed Configurations (FRC) relies on the presence of energetic ions from neutral beam injection and their relatively large Larmor radius.
November 2021 | F. Ceccherini | APS-DPP 2021 | Poster
Field Reversed Configurations (FRCs) are characterized by particular electric and magnetic field geometries that are due to the presence of unique particle orbit types as so-called Betatron, Drift, Fig8 and Type 1 orbits.
