☢️ Tokamak Poloidal Cross-Section (2D)

2D poloidal cross-section of a tokamak: watch charged particles drift along helical field lines formed by superposed toroidal and poloidal magnetic fields, and lose confinement when the fields grow too weak.

⚙ Under the hood

A 2D poloidal cross-section of a tokamak: charged particles follow helical field lines formed by a toroidal magnetic field combined with a plasma-current-driven poloidal field. Weaken either field and the particle drift orbits widen until confinement breaks down and particles are lost to the wall.
