Comprehensive Imaging of C-2W Plasmas:Instruments and Applications
December 2020 | E. Granstedt | HTPD 2020 | Poster
Long axial direction compared to short symmetric azimuthal direction requires many imaging instruments to view the plasma throughout.
Study of Neutral Gas Pressure Dynamics in C-2W Using Inverted Magnetron Ionization Gauges
December 2020 | V. Sokolov | HTPD 2020 | Poster
In TAE Technologies’ current experimental device, C-2W (also called “Norman”), record breaking, advanced beam-driven FRC plasmas are produced and sustained in steady state.
A Wire Calorimeter for Direct Measurement of Neutral Beam Injection
December 2020 | J. Titus | HTPD 2020 | Poster
Four static beams (15 keV) and four tunable beams (15-40 keV) are currently operational on C-2W. A tungsten wire calorimeter was designed with the help of a two-dimensional heat transfer model to measure injected neutral beam power.
Real-Time Alignment of a Polarimeter for FRC Equilibrium Measurements on C-2W
December 2020 | E. Parke | HTPD 2020 | Poster
On C-2W (also called “Norman”) record breaking, advanced beam- driven field-reversed-configuration (FRC) plasmas are produced and sustained in steady state
Measuring Energy Distribution of Neutral Beams using Doppler Shifted Spectroscopy on C-2W
December 2020 | R. Marshall | HTPD 2020 | Poster
9 neutral beam injectors (8 heating beams and 1 diagnostic beam) are installed on the central cell of C-2W.
