property of a three-dimensional magnetic field whose strength is symmetric in suitable coordinates, giving tokamak-like confinement of particle orbits.

In plasma physics, quasi-symmetry refers to property of a three-dimensional magnetic field whose strength is symmetric in suitable coordinates, giving tokamak-like confinement of particle orbits. This meaning comes from Nührenberg (1988) in Physics Letters A.[1]
