This paper explores the theory, control, and effects of fast ion axial bounce modes in TAE Technologies’ C-2W device, demonstrating how these resonant modes influence fast ion behavior and offering strategies for mitigating their impact through beam energy distribution.

In TAE’s C-2W machine*, a high-beta field-reversed configuration (FRC) is sustained within a magnetic mirror. Various mechanisms can cause rapid (<1 ms) collapse of the high-beta FRC state into a lower-beta mirror state, herein referred to as a plasma disruption.
This workshop covers all computer applications using High Performance Computing (HPC) in the field of fusion research. Participants will gain a broad understanding of the status of fusion HPC research internationally by attending presentations by leading researchers on a broad range of topics.
The National Society of Black Physicists hosts the largest academic meeting of minority physicists in the US, and this year will host its conference in partnership with the National Society of HispanicPhysicists. This year’s conference theme is “Merging Nuclei – Creating Stronger Forces,” and will consist of educational sessions, exhibitions, a career fair, and poster sessions on current trends in physics and science.
