X-point Equilibrium

X-Point Equilibrium is a magnetic equilibrium configuration in plasma physics characterized by the presence of a hyperbolic null point in the poloidal magnetic field, where field lines intersect at the X-point, enabling separatrix topology that divides confined and open field regions in toroidal confinement devices.
