A novel technique for in situ calibration of the C-2W electromagnetic neutral
May 2021 | G. Player | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper
In TAE Technologies’ current experimental device, C-2W, neutral beam injection creates a large fast ion population that sustains a fieldreversed configuration (FRC) plasma.
High-Temperature Plasma Diagnostics Conference
This annual conference with a long tradition is organized by the Plasma Physics Division of the European Physical Society (EPS). It covers the wide field of plasma physics ranging from nuclear fusion to low temperature, astrophysical and laser plasmas.
Wire calorimeter for direct neutral beam power measurements on C-2W
May 2021 | J. B. Titus | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper
The C-2W experiment produces advanced beam-driven field FRC plasmas, which are sustained in steady state utilizing variable energy neutral beams, advanced divertors, end bias electrodes, and an active plasma
control system.
Measurements of impurity ion temperature and velocity distributions via active charge-exchange recombination spectroscopy in C-2W
May 2021 | M. Nations | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper
In TAE Technologies’ C-2W experiment, electrode biasing is utilized for boundary control of a field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma embedded in a magnetic mirror.
Automated signal classification in the C-2W fusion experiment
May 2021 | N. Bolte | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper
In TAE Technologies’ current experimental fusion device, C-2W, record breaking, advanced beam-driven FRC plasmas are produced and sustained in steady state utilizing variable-energy neutral beams, expander divertors, end-bias electrodes, and an active plasma control system.
Inside the lab where scientists are recreating the energy of the sun to produce nearly unlimited clean energy
Recreating in a lab the nuclear reaction that powers the sun and other stars — which is called nuclear fusion — is a feat as complex as it sounds.
Fusion has the potential to create massive amounts of carbon-free or clean energy. So though no scientists have quite accomplished creating usable energy from fusion just yet, a handful of companies are working at it. The machines being built by scientists to accomplish this are called reactors, and they are massively heavy, cost tens of millions of dollars and represent the culmination of decades of scientific research. TAE Technologies, headquartered in Foothill Ranch, California, is a fusion company using a unique reactor design, and it recently reached a key milestone in the quest for usable energy from fusion.
