Abstract
Vacuum magnetic fields appear suitable for the confinement of highly energetic plasmas for times that may become adequate to make controlled thermonuclear reactors scientifically feasible. To achieve satisfactory confinement, these magnetic fields must possess certain characteristics. The properties that toroidal magnetic fields must have are reviewed and examples presented of apparatus in use in the laboratory to provide these magnetic fields.
