confinement of plasma

Traditionally, magnetic confinement of plasmas involves a toroidal shape.

Results indicate an efficient radial confinement of plasma by the mirror field with an electron temperature much enhanced over that resulting from a fieldfree breakdown.

Trisops was an experimental machine for the study of magnetic confinement of plasmas with the ultimate goal of producing fusion power.

The confinement of plasma in devices such as tokamaks, spherical tokamaks, and reversed field pinches requires the presence of closed magnetic flux surfaces.
