The C-2 was a field reversed configuration device developed by TAE technologies. It was the first full scale device made by the company.
A key accomplished goal of C-2 was to demonstrate a High Performance FRC (HPF), eg. improved confinement and stability compared to previous FRC efforts. Additionally the demonstration of heating and stability from Neutral Beam Injection was an important achievement of this device.
In 2013, C-2 was upgraded to C-2U.
