This is a simulation of the magnetic field in the WB-6 Bussard Fusion Reactor. A picture of the WB-6 can be found here.

It was done by Indrek. He posted it to the IEC Fusion Newsgroup. His simulation is logarithmic with 32 steps. Each step is 1.433 times the size of the previous step. It represents a field range of about 65,000 to 1. You can contact him through the newsgroup.

It was calculated using a program designed by Indrek using the Biot-Savart Law.

Not that it will matter to most folks.

It is a pretty picture.
