Abstract
A plasma has been heated substantially by passing a current through it. The plasma was injected axially into a mirror field, and the current was passed through the plasma parallel to the magnetic field. We obtained a heating efficiency, insensitive to variations of the discharge-circuit parameters as well as the density of the initial plasma, of 3-4%.Keywords
