Description: The spheromak is a toroidal magnetic confinement concept where no toroidal magnetic field coils link the torus. The magnetic field is generated primarily by plasma currents.
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory The spheromak is a toroidal magnetic/plasma configuration in which the magnetic field is generated primarily by plasma currents. The vertical field for equilibrium is generated by external poloidal field magnets or by a conducting flux conserver for times less than a magnetic soak-thru time of the conductor. As no toroidal magnetic field coils link the torus, there are exciting reactor opportunities if the physics will allow fusion parameters with sufficiently good energy confinement.
