We investigate here the interaction of the mirror plasma scrape-off layer, characterized by drift-interchange turbulence with an exponential toroidal wavenumber spectrum, and the much more quiescent FRC core, characterized by very low ion-scale turbulence levels, and a flat or inverted toroidal wavenumber spectrum.

We present new results from the Fast Ion D-Alpha (FIDA) on C-2W using modulation of the heating neutral beams, as an alternative to the diagnostic neutral beam.

The C-2W experiment utilizes neutral beams and electrode biasing to sustain and heat FRC plasmas, but electrode biasing can result in electrode arcing

In TAE Technologies’ current experimental device, C-2W (also called “Norman’’)[1,2], voltages applied to
concentric annular electrodes located in divertors are used to stabilize beam-driven field reversed
configuration (FRC) plasmas.
