A flux surface is a concept primarily used in the context of magnetically confined plasma, particularly in fusion research and experiments. In magnetic confinement systems like tokamaks and stellarators, a flux surface is defined as a surface in three-dimensional space where the magnetic flux is constant. In more detail, the magnetic field lines are organized in such a way that they form closed loops, and these loops can be visualized as surfaces.
