High power neutral beam injection into the C-2U advanced field-reversed configuration (FRC) stimulates at least three distinct energetic particle modes, none of which have been linked to
a performance limitation. Here we present an experimental characterization of one mode in particular, a high frequency mode ( f > fci ) observed in the decaying phase of the FRC.

Transport in a Field Reversed Configuration (FRC) is studied by using the two-dimensional code Q2D, which couples a magnetohydrodynamic code with a Monte Carlo code for the beam component.
