FRC Fast Ion Distribution: Effect on Equilibria
November 2020 | L. Galeotti | APS-DPP | Poster
Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) plays a critical role in TAE’s C-2W FRC device providing plasma stability, heating and current drive. C-2W produces steady-state FRCs that are stable and contain significant current and pressure from fast ions.
