The EPOS stellarator (a tabletop device to confine electron positron plasmas) will use high-temperature superconductors (HTS) to generate its quasi-axisymmetric magnetic field. Non-planar, non-insulated coils made from rare-earth barium copper oxide (ReBCO) tapes will be used to create a 2 T magnetic field on axis and enable a plasma volume of ~10 L.
In this contribution, we present the results of the hardware test campaign in preparation of the EPOS experiment design and assembly. During this effort, we are designing, manufacturing, and testing a series of coils from planar manufacturing demonstrators to a full-size, full-current coil.
Results from the coils tests inform the design of the EPOS stellarator. We will present the current state of the engineering design, as well as the road map for manufacturing and assembly.
