A basic plasma physics tandem mirror experiment is proposed to develop the potential uses of magnetic mirror confined plasmas for a neutron source. We consider parameter variations from the currently operating symmetric mirror plasma trap GDT in an a

In this paper, we describe the engineering work involved in constructing two ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) systems for use in the Keda Mirror with AXisymmetry tandem mirror experiment. Because they offer an effective and robust heating metho

A quiescent plasma is sustained for 80 energy confinement times by only gas fuelling and neutral beam heating in an axisymmetric region of the Tandem Mirror Experiment Upgrade (TMX-U). This plasma should be unstable because of the bad magnetic curvat

The paper presents an MHD stability analysis for low frequency modes observed in the Tandem Mirror Experiment-Upgrade (TMX-U). This MHD flute mode analysis emphasizes two key points concerning TMX-U: (1) the central cell × rotation, with appropriate

The formation of plug potential is usually observed in a tandem mirror experiment without neutral beam injection in the plug region [Phys. Plasmas 2, 2321 (1995)]. The formation requires only the electron cyclotron resonance heating experimentally. I

The bounced ion by the plug potential is quite essential in the tandem mirror experiment. In order to directly measure the plug potential (PP) bounce ion, we have constructed the charge exchange bounce ion analyzer located near the inner mirror throa

A variety of techniques are used in Tandem Mirror Experiment‐Upgrade (TMX‐U) to control impurities and reflux: repeated plasma pulses, glow discharge cleaning (GDC), and gettering. We performed a series of experiments under three different plasma

Electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) is important in tandem mirror devices which incorporate thermal barriers to enhance plasma confinement. ECRH in the end cells generates hot mirror-confined electrons to form the thermal barrier and creates

In this article we describe the theoretical motivation and experimental development of low‐energy (2 keV) neutral beams for fueling the central cell of the TMX‐U thermal‐barrier tandem mirror experiment at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
