Stabilizing windings for the tilting and shifting modes in an inductively formed spheromak
It is shown that a set of 4 passive conducting coils, each with the figure 8 topology, will stabilize a spheromak to the rigid body toroidal mode number n = 1 tilting and shifting modes. The inclusion of these coils does not interfere with the inductive formation process.
