Abstract

A tandem mirror with an axisymmetric center cell separated from quadrupole regions by a large mirror ratio throttle coil is considered. Passing particles induce an azimuthal electric field in the center cell that destroys the axisymmetry of the guiding center orbits. It is shown that the resulting neoclassical resonant‐plateau transport is small if dielectric resonances can be avoided.
