Abstract: | An optimally sized Fusion Engineering Test Facility should produce 10–20 MW of power at 2 MW/m2 steady-state wall loading. Because mirror cells do not scale with size, one can choose the fusion power and wall loading free from minimum size constraints. A cusp stabilized axisymmetric mirror is seen to be ideally suited for this purpose due to excellent access, a simple coil set, and good MHD properties. We present parameters for a proof of principle experiment as well as for a neutron source facility. |
