“…Plasma shaping, conducting shells, and the NBI would provide stabilization to MHD modes. This generic idea has been verified in C-2 experiment carried out recently at Tri Alpha Energy Company [30]. Although promising FRC reactor concepts have been developed in the past [4], a reactor design is outside the scope of the present paper, The physics basis for the SPIRIT concept has been verified in numerical calculations [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], as well as oblate FRC experiments.…”
