High-fidelity Bayesian inference of transient FRC plasma perturbations in C-2W
October 2019 | P.C. Norgaard | APS-DPP | Poster
A holistic, high-fidelity plasma reconstruction based on Bayesian inference is applied to study the advanced beam-driven Field Reversed Configuration (FRC)
1-Dimensional Equilibrium Reconstruction for C-2W Plasma
October 2019 | Sangeeta Gupta | APS-DPP | Poster
1-Dimension equilibrium is reconstructed using experimental plasma profiles, 1-D Ampere’s law, and Kinetic Monte Carlo fast ions.
Integrated Modeling of Stability and Transport of FRC Plasmas
October 2019 | S.A. Dettrick | APS-DPP | Poster
