The C-2W experiment at TAE Technologies demonstrates steady-state field-reversed configurations with enhanced plasma stability and ion heating driven by neutral beams, supported by advanced modeling and diagnostics to optimize performance.
October 2024 | A. Necas | APS DPP 2024 | Poster
The poster presents a self-consistent edge model of neutral beam heated high-beta plasmas, focusing on the interaction between fast ions and halo plasmas, with results showing how diffusion and charge exchange processes impact energy flow and plasma confinement.
October 2024 | E. Granstedt | APS DPP 2024 | Poster
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.

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.
