The unique features of the improved plasma confinement discovered earlier using automated optimization software have been explored. Reduced performance was associated with nonMaxwellian electron and ion distributions which are not electrostatically well confined. Enhanced confinement corresponds to Maxwellian electron and ion distributions.
