FRC as a Two-Fluid Flowing Relaxed State
November 2020 | B. Nicks | APS-DPP | Poster
Can FRCs (field-reversed configurations) be shown to be a preferred state of plasma under certain conditions?
Beam-driven ion-cyclotron modes in the scrape-off layer of a field-reversed configuration
November 2020 | B.S. Nicks | Nuclear Fusion | Paper
In the scrape-off-layer (SOL) of a field-reversed configuration, neutral beam injection can drive
modes in the vicinity of the ion-cyclotron frequency
Transport Scaling From C-2 to C-2W Field-Reversed Configuration Experiments
October 2019 | Erik Trask | APS-DPP | Poster

Anatomy of a Field-Reversed Configuration
October 2019 | L. Steinhauer | APS-DPP | Poster
Tangibles” = inputs to Grushenka: what can be measured. Intangibles” = outputs from Grushenka: what can’t be directlymeasured
Interpretation of the charge exchange neutral energy spectrum of C-2W
October 2019 | G. Player | APS-DPP | Poster
In TAE Technologies’ current experimental device, C-2W (also called “Norman”) [1], record breaking, advanced beam-driven field reversed configuration (FRC) plasmas are produced and sustained in steady state
