A Mass Resolved, High Resolution Neutral Particle Analyzer for C-2U
June 2016 | R. Clary | HTPD | Poster
C-2U is a high-confinement, advanced beam driven field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma which sustains the configuration for > 5 ms, in excess of typical MHD and fast particle instability times, as well as fast particle slowing down times.
