A simple modification to the heliac coil configuration [A. H. Boozer et al., Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion (International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, 1966), Vol. 1, p. 103] is described that reduces the toroidal perturbation to the m

Alfven‐wave heating experiments are performed on the High Beta Q Machine (HBQM) [Phys. Fluids 25, 262 (1982)] straight plasma column. An investigation is made of Alfven‐wave energy absorption by the Alfven‐resonant layer at which the local shea

A fast ‘‘notch’’ current has been produced on the (4 μH) hardcore central conductor [C. M. Greenfield, M. E. Koepke, and F. L. Ribe, Phys. Fluids B 2, 133 (1990)] of the high beta Q machine, a 2.6 m theta pinch [S. O. Knox, H. Meuth, E. Sevi

The formation and quasi‐equilibrium of a high‐beta heliac plasma are investigated in the High‐Beta Q Machine [Phys. Fluids 30, 2885 (1987)], a linear high‐beta l=1 stellarator with an internal current carrying conductor (hardcore). The hardco

Summary form only given. Virtual cathode machines (usually called Penning Fusion or PF machines) have achieved the required physics goals of maintaining required nonthermal electron distributions, spherical focussing, and excellent electron energy co

Combining spherical convergence with electrostatic or electro-magnetostatic confinement of a nonneutral plasma offers the possibility of high fusion gain in a centimeter-sized system. The physics principles, scaling laws, and experimental embodiments

Experiments are reported on helical plasma equilibrium and stability in the Scyllac toroidal θ-pinch sectors (120°) which have major radii of 2.375 and 4.0 m with coil arc lengths of 5.0 and 8.4 m, respectively. In these experiments the outward tor

Azimuthally symmetric (m=0) radio‐frequency (rf) waves for zero and for finite axial wavenumber k are investigated in a low‐compression linear theta pinch. The (k=0) modes occur spontaneously following the implosion phase of the discharge. For th

In this review we consider deuterium-tritium (D-T) fusion reactors based on four different plasma-confinement and heating approaches: the tokamak, the theta-pinch, the magnetic-mirror, and the laser-pellet system. We begin with a discussion of the dy
