A field-reversed configuration (FRC) is a type of plasma device studied as a means of producing nuclear fusion. It confines a plasma on closed magnetic field lines without a central penetration. [1][2] In an FRC, the plasma has the form of a self-stable torus, similar to a smoke ring. FRCs are closely related to another self-stable magnetic ...
Magnetic confinement fusion (MCF) is an approach to generate thermonuclear fusion power that uses magnetic fields to confine fusion fuel in the form of a plasma. Magnetic confinement is one of two major branches of controlled fusion research, along with inertial confinement fusion. Fusion reactions for reactors usually combine light atomic ...
Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket. The Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket (VASIMR) is an electrothermal thruster under development for possible use in spacecraft propulsion. It uses radio waves to ionize and heat an inert propellant, forming a plasma, then a magnetic field to confine and accelerate the expanding plasma ...
KSTAR. The KSTAR (or K orea S uperconducting T okamak A dvanced R esearch; Korean: 초전도 핵융합연구장치, literally "superconductive nuclear fusion research device") [1] is a magnetic fusion device at the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy in Daejeon, South Korea. It is intended to study aspects of magnetic fusion energy that will be ...
Helion Energy, Inc. Helion Energy, Inc. is an American fusion research company, located in Everett, Washington. [2] They are developing a magneto-inertial fusion technology to produce helium-3 and fusion power via aneutronic fusion, [3][4] which could produce low-cost clean electric energy using a fuel that can be derived exclusively from water.

A magnetic mirror, also known as a magnetic trap or sometimes as a pyrotron, is a type of magnetic confinement fusion device used in fusion power to trap high temperature plasma using magnetic fields. The mirror was one of the earliest major approaches to fusion power, along with the stellarator and z-pinch machines.
In plasma physics, a burning plasma is a plasma that is heated primarily by fusion reactions involving thermal plasma ions. [1][2] The Sun and similar stars are a burning plasma, and in 2020 the National Ignition Facility achieved a burning plasma in the laboratory. [3] A closely related concept is that of an ignited plasma, in which all of the ...
