Title: Plasma injection and capture at electron cyclotron resonance in a mirror system with additional rf fields

OSTI ID:6778812

Experiments and numerical simulations have been carried out to determine how cyclotron-resonance rf fields in an open magnetic mirror system affect the capture and confinement of a plasma injected along the axis. The results show that at electron cyclotron resonance the fields greatly improve the longitudinal plasma confinement.
