English: This is a sketch of the plasma geometry and magnetic coils inside Lockheed Martins' compact fusion reactor. It is taken from: McGuire, Thomas. "The Lockheed Martin Compact Fusion Reactor." Thursday Colloquium. Princeton University, Princeton. 6 Aug. 2015. Lecture. It is not an exact copy. The design attempts to reduce plasma losses inside sharply bent fields. The cusp geometry attempts to reduce the area where plasma will leak out by limiting loss through the edges and axis of the cusps. The design also attempts to reflux loss from edges to other cusps.

It is recommended to name the SVG file “Lockheed Martins' Compact Fusion Reactor.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
