Description

Plasma confinement by the levitating dipole field has a number of advantages essential for controlled fusion. The magnetohydrodynamics stability is provided due to the compressibility effect and appears owing to strong explanation of a flux tube in the dipole field. The configuration considered is ideal for ecr heating and controlled convection flux cells may serve as a mean for fuel feeding of a system and ash removal
