## Abstract Modern classical force fields have been traditionally parameterized by attempting to maximize agreement to any number of experimental and/or quantum mechanical target properties. As these force fields are pushed towards obtaining quantitative estimates of often subtle energetic differen

โฆ Synopsis
High field is very favorable for magnetically confined fusion devices such as a tokamak, but electromagnetic force derived from the field becomes a fatal problem. In particular, the largest in-plane centering force hinders toroidal field coils from operating at higher fields. Variable pitch multihelical coils, which we term force-balanced coils (FBCs), by which this force is drastically reduced, are proposed for the coil system of tokamaks. FBCs can also provide poloidal flux swing for plasma breakdown and current induction during the ramp-up phase of the coil current. In this paper, we indicate how to design FBCs for tokamaks. The fusion reactor-size FBCs are designed and compared with that of the conventional toroidal field coil system.

The interaction of counterions with a suitably long, charged oligomer appears susceptible to treatment in the context of polyelectrolyte theory by the introduction of an end-effect parameter that reflects the reduced association of counterions with the terminal regions of the oligo-ion.
