| contents | Fast rotation can improve the stability and confinement of fusion plasmas. However, to maintain a rapidly rotating fusion plasma in steady state, significant energy must be invested in spinning up each incoming fuel ion. We show here that, under the right circumstances, collisional cross-field radial fueling can directly transfer drift energy between outgoing and incoming ions without the need for external power recirculation, thereby reducing the energy costs of maintaining the rotation. |
