Stellarator (160 words)
In a stellarator, the screw-like twisting of field lines around the torus centre is generated by external coils.
In contrast to the Tokamak, a stellarator does not need a direct-axis flow component in the plasma.
In a stellarator, the magnetic field cage is formed by a single coil system.
Scientific Visualization of 3-dimensional Optimized Stellarator Configurations (1388 words)
A particularly convenient choice for stellarators (as shown in Figure 1) are the magnetic or Boozer coordinates [2] which allow the particle trajectory equations to be expressed in an accurate Hamiltonian form which depends only on the magnitude of the magnetic field and its derivatives.
In Figure 2 we display an outer magnetic flux surface of a low aspect ratio stellarator with color contours proportional to the strength of the magnetic field (light purple is low field, light blue-green is high field) and the trajectory of a magnetic field line is shown in white.
Stellarator transport optimizations focus directly on the dependence of the magnetic field strength on the two angular coordinates which span each flux surface.
