Overview of NORM (C-2W) Fusion Device –
NORM uses Neutral Beams and End-Biasing Systems to form and sustain either Mirror Plasmas or Field-Reversed
Configurations (FRCs) – see Roche et al., Nature Comm, 16, 3487 (2025) for NBI formed FRC report.

The Field Reversed Configuration (FRC) is a highly diamagnetic plasma confinement device used in nuclear fusion research. FRC’s exhibit an internal region of weak magnetic field with ideal conditions to reach the high temperature required to burn high Z aneutronic fuels …

The field reversed configuration (FRC) has been a curious case in plasma physics research in that early MHD analysis suggested FRCs should be
grossly unstable, while experimental results contradicted that prediction
