Stability of a hot symmetric tandem mirror with thermal barrier

Creators

Description

It is shown that in general the stability of a hot electron symmetric tandem mirror is the same as the stability of its barrier-plug cell alone, plus an additional limitation on the center cell length such that the center cell Alfven frequency is higher than the average barrier-plug E x B drift and the hot electron precession frequency. Stability of the hot electron barrier-plug cell is studied extensively
