Quasisymmetry is a concept primarily used in the context of plasma physics and magnetic confinement, particularly in the design of magnetic confinement devices like stellarators and tokamaks. It refers to a specific property of the magnetic field configuration that helps to improve the confinement of plasma by reducing the adverse effects of magnetic field perturbations. In ideal magnetic confinement systems, it is crucial to maintain the stability and confinement of the plasma, which can be influenced by the geometry of the magnetic fields.
