spheromak设备SPHEX已被修改，通过添加一个载流杆沿着几何轴，提供一个预先存在的环向场。我们表明，等离子体可以成功地注入到这样的字段从螺旋源;字段协助等离子体从枪喷射，并提高枪和等离子体之间的耦合，使T e，T i，和环向电流都与棒电流增加。
The spheromak device SPHEX has been modified by adding a current-carrying rod along the geometric axis, providing a preexisting toroidal field. We show that plasma can be succesfully injected into such a field from a helicity source; the field assists plasma ejection from the gun and improves the coupling between gun and plasma, so that T e , T i , and the toroidal current all increase with rod current.
