Significant progress has been made in the development of new, compact stellarator devices that could test optimization principles for the design of a more attractive reactor. These are 3 and 4 field period low aspect ratio quasi-omnigenous stellarato

Recent progress in the theoretical understanding and design of compact stellarators is described. Hybrid devices, which depart from canonical stellarators by deriving benefits from the bootstrap current which flows at finite beta, comprise a class of

A new class of low aspect ratio toroidal hybrid stellarators is found using more general plasma confinement optimization criterion than quasi-symmetrization. The plasma current profile and shape of the outer magnetic flux surface are used as control

A class of small aspect ratio (A) stellarators is found that does not rely on quasisymmetrization to achieve good confinement. These systems depart from canonical stellarators by allowing a small net plasma current. An optimization procedure with bou

A method for calculating the magnetic field of a rectangular conductor of finite cross section is developed. The coil composed of the rectangular conductor may take any shape in a plane except one where a multivalued function is necessary to describe
