November 2012 | A. Necas | APS-DPP | Poster
We have studied issues related to edge physics of the HPF regime FRC [1] ” using the NIMROD extended MHD code [2].
Interaction of Fast Ions with Global Plasma Modes in the C-2 Field Reversed Configuration Experiment
November 2012 | A. Smirnov | APS-DPP | Poster
A high-confinement operating regime [1] with plasma lifetimes significantly exceeding past empirical scaling laws was recently obtained by combining plasma gun edge biasing and tangential Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) in the C-2 field-reversed configuration (FRC) experiment [2, 3].
High-Frequency Magnetic Fluctuations in Field-Reversed Configuration Plasmas with Neutral Beam Injection
November 2012 | M. Thompson | APS-DPP | Poster
The C-2 experiment [1] seeks to study the properties of field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasmas with significant super-thermal ion populations generated by neutral beam injection.
Simulations And Observations Of Radiation In the Electron Cyclotron Frequency Range On the C-2 Device
November 2012 | E. Trask | APS-DPP | Poster
Several different antennas have recently been fielded on the TAE Technologies C-2 [1] experimental system to measure radiation emission in the range of 1-60 GHz, where the fundamental electron cyclotron frequency is approximately 2.5 GHz at the edge of the field-reversed configuration (FRC).
