Detailed comparisons of 2-D MHD simulations to theta-pinch preionization and flux trapping experiments

Summary form only given. Field Reversed Configurations (FRCs) are formed by first trapping an initial bias field in an ionized plasma and then applying a large field opposite to the bias field. This reversal wraps the field lines around the ionized plasma forming a toroidal configuration that is the...

Summary:Summary form only given. Field Reversed Configurations (FRCs) are formed by first trapping an initial bias field in an ionized plasma and then applying a large field opposite to the bias field. This reversal wraps the field lines around the ionized plasma forming a toroidal configuration that is then compressed by further increase of the reversed field.
