Abstract

In nuclear fusion plasma, open magnetic systems have advantages, including high beta, no neoclassical radial transport, ease preservation, and upgrades. Magnetic Conical-Cusp Mirror is one of these systems that has attracted the attention of researchers. In the Conical-Cusp Mirror device, plasma is confined by various magnetic coils with different current directions. In this work, a Conical-Cusp Mirror plasma system and a simple magnetic mirror plasma were simulated by COMSOL Multiphysics. Moreover, magnetic field gradient and plasma beta were compared in these two systems. The results showed that the Conical-Cusp Mirror plasma is more stable and has higher beta.
