  • Abstract
    We show in this paper that any generalized toroid-dipole force balancing system will require a minimum unidirectionally stressed structure equal to the minimum amount required by the virial theorem. The analytical proof is general and independent of configuration, current distribution, and the fraction of energy stored in the poloidal and toroidal fields.
