Excerpt from Equilibria and Adiabatic Compression of Free Boundary Belt Pinches
The desire for stable toroidal plasma equilibria has led to studies of plasma configurations with non - cirar toroidal cross - sections.1 Many of the efforts to determine equilibria for such configurations have been numerical investigations which assume a sharp boundary toroidal plasma, supported in equilibrium by a vacuum magnetic field. These calations, which consider a variety of plasma current density distributions offer some surprising results. For example, plasma compression ratio limitations of the order of two, for highly non - cirar plasmas, have been observed.2'3 This limitation may be attributed to the lack of cirar symmetry of the plasma cross section. In determining such limitations, the aspect ratio is.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly explores the dynamics of plasma in sharp boundary belt pinches, offering a rigorous analysis of their equilibrium and adiabatic compression. The author's approach, grounded in mathematical physics, draws parallels with earlier studies on cusped geometries and tokomak compression, providing a comprehensive understanding of the subject. Key themes explored include the influence of the surrounding conducting shell on plasma shape, the impact of thermodynamic parameters on plasma behavior, and the existence of a one-parameter family of equilibria. Asymptotic analysis reveals the limitations and potential for high compression ratios, particularly emphasizing the trade-off between column height and width. The book concludes with a detailed examination of plasma dimensions and their dependence on various parameters, offering valuable insights for experimental designs.
