Overview of C-2W Results and Diagnostic Systems
November 2020 | T. Roche | APS-DPP | Presentation
C-2W (or Norman) has achieved its program goals: 60+ individual diagnostic systems. 1000s of channels total utilized to obtain & verify results
Collimated Pyrobolometer Array to Measure Charge Exchange Losses in C-2W
November 2020 | M. Griswold | APS-DPP | Presentation
FRC plasma embedded in a mirror- confined scrape-off layer. Large-orbit fast ions from Neutral Beam Injection heat and stabilize the plasma.
Reduced MHD model and simulations for advanced plasma control
November 2020 | S. Galkin | APS-DPP | Presentation
Motivation and requirements
• Reduced MHD model
• Domain discretization
• Simulation Bandwidth control
• Time integration scheme
Generation of Relativistic THz Radiation by Laser Irradiation of Microplasma Waveguide with Application to Pulsed Polarimetry
November 2020 | A. Necas | APS-DPP | Poster
MFE* devices need internal field measurements, B(r). Pulsed Polarimetry provides B, ne (μneBds). Based on a FIR (150 𝜇𝑚 or 2 THz) radiation
Blended Kinetic Simulations of Transport in C-2W
November 2020 | C. Lau | APS-DPP | Poster
Goal: understand confinement in current devices; predict confinement in future devices
Rigid motion of C-2W FRC plasma
November 2020 | K. Zhai | APS-DPP | Poster
C-2W is an advanced beam driven Field Reversed Configuration (FRC) fusion device [1], in which plasma sustainment with total temperature at 3keV has been demonstrated.
