Sr Scientist, Plasma Control

We currently have an opening at our, Foothill Ranch, Orange County CA facility for the position of Sr Scientist of Plasma Control. The primary task of the Plasma Control Team is to maintain and advance the development of the Real-time Plasma Control System (RTPCS) for TAE’s current generation fusion device and to design next generation systems. The RTPCS integrates many plasma diagnostics, including magnetic probes, neutral beam diagnostics, and measurements of plasma density, with plasma actuators, including magnetic coils, neutral beam injectors, biasing electrodes and fueling valves, into a holistic control system to achieve prescribed plasma performance and maintain stability.
