Finite‐Resistivity Instabilities of a Sheet Pinch
TL;DR: In this paper, the stability of a plane current layer is analyzed in the hydromagnetic approximation, allowing for finite isotropic resistivity, and the effect of a small layer curvature is simulated by a gravitational field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computation of Hydromagnetic Equilibria with Finite Pressure in Minimum-B Systems
John Killeen,Kenneth J. Whiteman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the distortion of a magnetic well in a minimum-B system by a plasma is calculated, and the effect of increasing the magnitude of the plasma pressure is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Boundary‐Layer Formation in the Pinch
TL;DR: In this paper, a study is made of various processes that occur prior to the pinch effect when an electric field is applied to a deuterium gas, including the percentage of ionization, the electron and ion temperatures, the resistivity of the gas, and the current density.
