PLASMA CONFINEMENT DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PLASMA CONFINEMENT

摘要

A plasma confinement device (500), comprises a first magnet system (1) comprising a first plurality of concentrically arranged circular-loop coils (11, 12), comprising a first coil (11) arranged to carry a current in a first direction; and a second coil (12) arranged to carry a current in a second direction opposite to the first direction; and a second magnet system (2) comprising a second plurality of concentrically arranged circular-loop coils (21, 22), arranged with mirror symmetry with respect to the first magnet system (1) relative to a symmetry plane (P) located between the first magnet system (1) and the second magnet system (2), so as to create an annular plasma confinement area (206) at the symmetry plane (P) with a magnetic field normal to the symmetry plane (P) at the symmetry plane (P).
