Synchrotron Radiation From Plasmas with Sub-Relativistic Temperatures
Oct 2017 | A. Necas | APS-DPP | Poster
Theory for synchrotron radiation by high temperature (sub- relativistic) electrons has been developed
CHARACTERIZATION OF THE C-2W PLASMA GUNS
October 2017 | Ami M. Dubois | APS-DPP | Poster
Previous use of coaxial arc discharge plasma guns on the C-2U device exhibited great success in plasma stabilization and improved confinement.
Achievement of Sustained Net Plasma Heating in a Fusion Experiment with the Optometrist Algorithm
July 2017 | E. A. Baltz | Scientific Reports | Paper
TAE and Google have partnered to combine human and machine interaction to further plasma science using their “Optometrist Algorithm.”
Development of a First-Principles Simulation Model of Turbulent Transport in Compact Tori
May 2017 | D.P. Fulton | The Sherwood Fusion Theory Conference | Poster
FRC core strongly stable! Finite SOL turbulence. Both FLR and gradient-B effects stabilizing. Qualitative agreement with measure doppler backscattering.
C-2U Physics Overview
May 2017 | A. Necas | The Sherwood Fusion Theory Conference | Poster
C-2U is a unique hybrid field-reversed configuration (FRC) where we successfully combine a high-beta (~1) FRC plasma with neutral beam injection (NBI), field line biasing, and mirror physics.
Modeling feedback control of unstable separatrix location in beam-driven field-reversed configurations
March 2017 | Niko Rath | AIP Publishing | Paper
We present a linear, one-parameter model for rigid displacement of a toroidally symmetric plasma.
