Rapid damping of magnetic turbulence induced by collisional merging process of field-reversed configurations (opens in new tab)

May 2026 | D. Kobayashi (Nihon Univ.) | Nuclear Fusion | Paper We report observations of an energetic-particle mode (EPM) in a linear plasma device that corresponds to an axial bounce resonance of fast ions sourced from neutral-beam injection (NBI). In our experiment, novel dynamic shaping of a magnetic mirror field reduces the distance ... The post appeared first on .
