Aneutronic fusion using commonly available fuel such as hydrogen and boron 11 (11B) is one of
the most attractive potential energy sources. On the other hand, it requires 30 times higher
temperature than deuterium–tritium fusion in a thermonuclear fusion reactor condition.

The primary focus of the paper is to establish a formulation that accurately captures both parallel
and radial variations of the two-dimensional (2D) potential in SOL.

This study successfully developed a refueling technique for a field-reversed configuration (FRC)
via axial plasmoid injection and demonstrated it on the FAT-CM device at Nihon University.
