Abstract
Examples of a plasma compression system are disclosed. The system includes a metallic vessel configured to receive and contain a plasma. The system further includes a metallic liquid liner in the vessel and at least partially bounding a plasma compression region having a longitudinal axis, and means for moving the liquid liner inwardly towards the longitudinal axis to compress the plasma in the plasma compression region. The system further includes a plurality of electrically conductive coils outside the plasma compression region and configured to generate a poloidal magnetic field in the liquid liner and the plasma compression region. At least some of the poloidal magnetic field within the plasma compression region extends along the longitudinal axis, and at least some of the poloidal magnetic field in the liquid liner moves inwardly towards the longitudinal axis with the liquid liner as the liquid liner moves towards the longitudinal axis.
