基于一组耦合率方程串联镜约束的代码被用来研究两个随时间变化的现象：启动在劳伦斯利弗莫尔实验室Tendem镜实验（TMX）和α粒子建立在一个串联镜反应堆。的启动研究表明，它是可能的，以实现近稳态条件下的TMX放电，提供适当的编程源。α粒子的研究表明，热化α粒子的积累会严重降低反应堆的效率，而循环操作可以用来显着减少降解。
A code based on a set of coupled-rate equations for tandem mirror confinement is used to study two time-dependent phenomena: start-up in the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory Tendem Mirror Experiment (TMX) and alpha-particle build-up in a tandem mirror reactor. The start-up studies indicate that it is possible to achieve near-steady-state conditions in a TMX discharge, provided the sources are suitably programmed. The alpha-particle studies show that build-up of thermalized alphas can seriously degrade the efficiency of a reactor, and that cyclic operation can be used to significantly reduce the degradation.
