【 摘 要 】

Applying Îą-channeling techniques to mirror machines can significantly increase their effective reactivity, thus making open configurations more advantageous for practical fusion. A large fraction of Îą particle energy can be extracted using rf waves. Effects employed to cool Îą particles can also in principle be used to heat the fusion ions; the possibility to design a configuration of rf waves which could be used to perform both tasks is demonstrated.
