Preliminary results in double cusp tandem mirror MM-4U

Abstract

MM-4U device and preliminary experimental results are presented. Main results are as follows: The plasma has been produced by means of the injection of strong electron current; the axial profile of the plasma potential and the plasma electron density have been obtained respectively, they had a simular form; the plasma potential in the centre of the east cusp, the west cusp and the simple mirror; V{sub e} = -180V, V{sub w} = -164V, V{sub m} -1.8V; the electron density: n{sub e} = 1.7 x 10{sup 11} cm{sup -3}, n{sub w} = 4.7 x 10{sup 10} cm{sup -3}, n{sub m} = 7.5 x 10{sup 7} cm{sup -3}; the electron temperature: T{sub e} = (19.9 {+-} 1.6) eV, T{sub w} = (20.7 {+-} 1.7) eV; the plasma pressure at 8 cm on the right of the west cusp centre is about 6.76 Pa, {beta} {approx_equal} 1.7 x 10{sup -3}. The plasma instability has been observed in the simple mirror, its vibration frequency was 7{approx}9.2 kHz. The results are discussed. The next new task of the physical experiment are proposed.
