Theta-pinch, or θ-pinch, is a type of fusion power reactor design. The name refers to the configuration of currents used to confine the plasma fuel in the reactor, arranged to run around a cylinder in the direction normally denoted as theta in polar coordinate diagrams.
Each bar can also have a comment, such as "comment7=xx" to show "(xx)" after the number in bar 7. For a 2-column bar chart, the 2nd column items have prefix "col2_" such as scale maximum, col2_data_max=110, and col2_data3=67 with col2_comment3=zz. See below: "Example with two data columns". Each bar chart can be formatted typically within 1/5 ...

Screw pinch – A combination of a Z-pinch and theta pinch [15] (also called a stabilized Z-pinch, or θ-Z pinch) [16] [17] Reversed field pinch or toroidal pinch – This is a Z-pinch arranged in the shape of a torus. The plasma has an internal magnetic field. As distance increases from the center of this ring, the magnetic field reverses ...
A technician looks through the center of the NRL Linus-0 reactor. The Linus program [a] was an experimental fusion power project developed by the United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) starting in 1971. [2] The goal of the project was to produce a controlled fusion reaction by compressing plasma inside a metal liner.
In fusion power research, the Z-pinch (zeta pinch) is a type of plasma confinement system that uses an electric current in the plasma to generate a magnetic field that compresses it (see pinch). These systems were originally referred to simply as pinch or Bennett pinch (after Willard Harrison Bennett ), but the introduction of the θ-pinch ...
{{bar gap|optional separator|height=any valid length (omitting unit defaults to px, default is 10px)}} Omitting the separator generates a blank row. Another useful separator is <hr> which produces a horizontal line. Break {{Bar box break}} is a template to split bar box tables into multiple charts while maintaining alignment of the columns.
The first real effort to build a control fusion reactor used the pinch effect in a toroidal container. A large transformer wrapping the container was used to induce a current in the plasma inside. This current creates a magnetic field that squeezes the plasma into a thin ring, thus "pinching" it.
