Confinement and heating of high beta plasmas with emphasis on compact toroids: Final progress report period ending February 15, 1987

Technical Report · Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 1987

OSTI ID:6906498

This report describes work performed at the University of Washington Aerospace and Energetics Research Program involving the ''compact toroid'' approach to magenetic confinement of plasmas. The five experiments comprising the effort are: The coaxial slow source experiment; the CSS project; the variable length experiment; the merging spheromak experiment; and the variable angle conical theta pinch experiment.
