A superconducting toroidal quadrupole is being built at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. The floating multipole experimental facility will be used to study confinement of low‐beta (“beta” is the ratio of plasma pressure to the confining magnetic field pressure, and a low beta is typically less than about 0.1) plasmas in a toroidal geometry that has symmetry and strong stabilizing properties.
