    A newer startup based upon research at Washington University says:

    Our process, called imposed-dynamo current drive (IDCD), sustains a compact, stable spheromak plasma.

    So they appear to be basically a miniaturized version of a tokamak with a new twist in a magnetic field drive which I’m sure is patented. Anyone have anything to add about it?

    From the abstract an a quick google it is just a model of Spheromak:
