Aneutronic fusion using commonly available fuel such as hydrogen and boron 11 (11B) is one of
the most attractive potential energy sources. On the other hand, it requires 30 times higher
temperature than deuterium–tritium fusion in a thermonuclear fusion reactor condition.

Restoring wall conditions in C-2W (Norman)—TAE Technologies’ present fusion device—after a vent is critical to
produce high quality field-reverse configuration (FRC) plasmas
November 2022 | M. Nations | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper
In C-2W (also called “Norman”), beam-driven field reversed configuration plasmas embedded in a magnetic mirror are produced and
sustained in a steady state.
