Critical Near-Term Issues for FRCs
February 2013 | L. Steinhauer | Nihon Symposium | Presentation
Five critical near-term issues.
Overview of C-2 Experiments
February 2013 | H. Guo | EPR Workshop | Presentation
FRC offers an ideal configuration for an economic reactor and may allow use of aneutronic fuels.
Simulation of Fast Ion Transport in the C-2 FRC Experiment
January 2013 | S. Dettrick | 2013 Energetic Particles Workshop UCI | Presentation
Without magnetic perturbations, NB Ion energy confinement time is τE~ 500us. Most NB ion energy goes to heating electrons.
Rotational stability of FRC
November 2012 | D. Barnes | APS-DPP | Presentation
Charge separation and transport of the n=2 instability in C-2 FRC plasmas
November 2012 | B. Deng | APS-DPP | Poster
Bolometer data show that the plasma spin is in the ion diamagnetic direction, while the plasma column wobbles in the electron diamagnetic direction.
Upgrades to TAE Technologies C-2 Neutron Detector System
November 2012 | E. Garate | APS-DPP | Poster
We are implementing additional scintillator based neutron detectors on the TAE Technologies C-2 system.
