Development of quasi-isodynamic stellarators [PDF]
Theoretical stellarator research from MHD-stable stellarators via quasi-helically symmetric ones to Wendelstein 7-X, quasi-axisymmetric tokamaks and quasi-isodynamic stellarators is sketched. Research strategy, computational aspects and various favorable properties are emphasized.

Pressure insensitivity of a high-β quasi-isodynamic stellarator [PDF]
The sensitivity of a high-β quasi-isodynamic stellarator equilibrium with respect to changes of the plasma pressure is investigated. It is shown that a plasma boundary near to the high-β boundary exists with the property that the magnetohydrodynamic and drift-kinetic properties of the associated low-β plasma are similar.

Resilience of Quasi-Isodynamic Stellarators against Trapped-Particle Instabilities [PDF]
It is shown that in perfectly quasi-isodynamic stellarators, trapped particles with a bounce frequency much higher than the frequency of the instability are stabilizing in the electrostatic and collisionless limit. The collisionless trapped-particle instability is therefore stable as well as the ordinary electron-density-gradient-driven trapped ...

Quasi-isodynamic Configuration With N = 12 and High β
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2006Results of an optimization toward quasi‐isodynamicity for a stellarator with a comparatively large number of periods, N = 12, are presented. The following set of physics properties to be achieved was used: 1) good long‐time collisionless confinement of α‐particles; 2) small neoclassical transport in the 1/ν regime; 3) small bootstrap current; 4) high ...

Stellaris: A high-field quasi-isodynamic stellarator for a prototypical fusion power plant
Magnetic confinement fusion research has so far prioritized the tokamak concept, which presents greater design simplicity at the cost of control complexity in comparison to stellarators.

Search for Very-High-β MHD Stable Quasi-Isodynamic Configurations
Quasi-isodynamic configurations offer the possibility of very good energetic particle confinement. They seem to offer the possibility of achieving very high plasma β, too.
