Radial Pressure Balance in the C-2 Device
September 2013 | M. Tuszewski | US-Japan CT Workshop | Presentation
Ideal FRC pressure balance.
Overview of C-2 Compact Toroid Merging Experiments
August 2013 | H. Guo | GA Seminar | Presentation
Simple geometry for ease of construction & maintenance. C-2 achieved new High Confinement Field-Reversed Configuration (FRC) regime with dramatically improved stability & confinement.
Study of Dense FRC Formation and Transport with Multistage Compression
June 2013 | V. Bystritskii | ICOPS | Presentation
Based on several decades of experimental and theoretical research of Plasma Configuration with a Reversed magnetic Field (FRC) , it is presently considered as an alternative venue for steady state and/or pulsed CTF.
A high performance field-reversed configuration regime in the C-2 device
May 2013 | H. Gota | Transactions of Fusion Science and Technology | Paper
Field reversed configurations (FRCs) with high confinement are obtained in the C-2 device by combining plasma gun edge biasing and neutral beam injection.
Rotational Stability of FRC
April 2013 | D. Barnes | Sherwood Fusion Theory | Presentation
Mode is driven by rotation. Rotation provides fictitious outward gravity. Rayleigh-Taylor-like heavy-on-light instability.
Propagation of ion cyclotron resonant waves in an FRC configuration
April 2013 | F. Cecherini | Sherwood Fusion Theory | Presentation
The Field Reversed Configuration (FRC) exhibits very peculiar structures for both the plasma density and the magnetic field.
