The concept of topological or structural stability is introduced and its importance in the magnetic confinement of plasmas is discussed. Topological stability requires the presence of a pair of limit cycles in the magnetic field configuration. This paper deals with the design of an experimental device possessing limit cycles. The design includes a high beta (b=1), high density (10^16), hot (100 eV) hydrogen plasma which is to be compressed by a factor of about 5 in a torodial device of 25 cm average major radius with a capacitor bank rise time of less than 2 µsec. Two shaped toroidal coils …
