Characteristics of a Plasma Source with adjustable multi-pole line cusp geometry


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Two magnetic configurations of Multi-cusp Plasma Device (MPD) have been explored to obtain high quiescence level, large uniform plasma region with nearly flat mean density and temperature profiles. In particular, properties of plasma in a six-pole six magnet (SPSM) and twelve pole six magnets (TPSM) cusp configurations are rigorously compared and reported here. It is found that more uniform plasma with nearly flat profiles is found in TPSM along with increased quiescence level. Findings are verified across various magnetic field strengths for both configurations.
